Building on the joint scoping study with support from Early Opportunities, we have since supported micro research 4 countries in Bhutan, India, Pakistan, and the Philippines. These studies have provided empirical evidence to support the participation of young children in climate and environmental discourse and actions. This is one of a series of four micro research reports that summarize findings, lessons learned, and recommendations requiring urgent actions.

Climate change and environmental degradation have become pressing global challenges, affecting communities worldwide. The vulnerability of children and mothers in flood-affected regions, such as Shikarpur Sindh, Pakistan, is of paramount concern. This micro research aims to investigate the impact of climate change on Early Childhood Development (ECD) in flood-affected communities by analysing the risks and challenges faced by this vulnerable population.
