Together with Ilifa Labantwana, and Research on Socioeconomic Policy (RESEP) at Stellenbosch University , we are proud to present a webinar series exploring early childhood development systems within a South African context.
Each month, we will present perspectives and research on a range of issues affecting the effective delivery systems of early childhood development services in South Africa - including cost, compliance, user fees, multi-dimensional service delivery, child outcomes data, and the demand and supply of ECD facilities. Our goal is to create change for children through the promotion of data, research, and understanding.
Webinars take place at 11am on the first Wednesday of each month, starting June 2024. Registration links are shared on this page once available, as well as on DataDrive2030's LinkedIn profile, and via DataDrive2030's newsletter
