EARLY CHILDHOOD CARE AND EDUCATION (ECCE)

Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) refers to programs and services that support the cognitive, physical, social, and emotional development of children from birth to age 6. ECCE is foundational for lifelong learning, well-being, and the holistic development of children. It includes a range of services, such as early learning opportunities, health care, nutrition, and parental education, designed to ensure that all children, especially those from marginalized communities, achieve developmental milestones. ECCE is recognized as a critical component of sustainable development, contributing to social equity, economic growth, and the overall quality of education.
