When children are invisible in data, they risk being invisible in policies, programmes and services.
Quality statistics help show who is being left behind, what barriers they face, and where action is needed most.

As leaders gather at the #ECDFinancingForum, it’s time to turn evidence into action. unicef.link/4tKn1sx

Africa’s future is shaped in the earliest years. However, UNICEF analysis shows ECD investment in Eastern and Southern Africa is low and poorly prioritized.
