ARNEC Response Strategy, April - December 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic is unprecedented, and its impact is far-reaching and long-term. The containment and mitigation measures enforced by governments to stop the spread of the virus are having a huge impact on the well-being of children and their families, especially those who are already vulnerable and disadvantaged as a result, among others, of poverty, disability, location, gender, ethnicity and language, and migrant/refugee status.

ARNEC connects partners and stakeholders in the ECD community in the region and provides a platform for ECD professionals and practitioners to discuss the impact of COVID-19 on young children and their families, and share practical approaches and strategies that might be adapted or replicated to scale in response to the COVID-19 crisis.
