Past Program

Studies have shown early childhood education programs help children develop the social and emotional skills they need to succeed in school and later life. They also indicated that children who participate in high quality early childhood education programs as young children have a greater attention span and are less likely to repeat later grades. 

The thirteenth virtual meeting of the Education Policymakers Network focused on two implementation cases – one from Peru and another from Think Equal. 

The Education Policymakers Network connects policymakers from different countries to work, learn and innovate together. Launched in 2021, the network helps support and sustain education reform around the need to develop a breadth of skills – cognitive, creative, physical, social and emotional – in young and school-aged learners. 

An insights report is generated from each meeting and shared across the network. The meetings are also recorded so that they can act as a resource for the members after they took place.  

The virtual network meetings are only open to participants in the Education Policymakers Network.
