Early Childhood Development and Disability: A Discussion Paper

Source: World Health Organization and UNICEF - Retrieved October 2, 2012
The World Health Organization and UNICEF recently published a new paper, Early Childhood Development and Disability: A Discussion Paper (September 2012). The paper provides an overview of disability in early childhood and underscores the need to strengthen and scale up early childhood development initiatives, in order to ensure that children with disabilities can participate meaningfully in their homes, schools and communities. It is meant to encourage international discussion, planning and action on issues related to disability, early childhood development, and early intervention.  http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/10665/75355/1/9789241504065_eng.pdf
