This project provides an up-to-date mapping of child poverty in Luxembourg and identifies ways in which spending on children in Luxembourg, and related cash and childcare policies, may be reformed to improve their antipoverty effects. It serves as a foundation for evidence-informed advocacy for UNICEF Luxembourg.
This project investigates the promises that G20 countries previously made concerning early childhood development, and the opportunities lost through the cost of their inaction on those promises. The project is being undertaken in collaboration with Their World and the University of York, and focuses on the G20 and Africa.
Through a systematic review of the global literature from the last 10 years, this paper adds to the evidence base on child development and supportive environments for early learning and well-being, through the lens of family and child policies. The background paper was written to inform UNESCO’s Global Report on Early Childhood Care and Education, 2024.
