Using Evidence to Improve Child Wellbeing in India
December 14, 2018
Objective
Deprivation in childhood has irreversible effects across an individual’s life, making the early years particularly important for effective investments in the health and wellbeing of children and their caregivers. Evidence helps to uncover the multiple deprivations children face in different contexts and respond to their diverse needs. To gain a better understanding of these deprivations to develop effective strategies for prevention and response, there is a need for increased investment in generating sound evidence both globally and in India. The event included the launch of the ‘Campbell-UNICEF Mega Map’, which maps evidence against the child wellbeing domains of UNICEF’s Strategic Plan 2018-2021. The Mega Map provides an overview of all the evidence available identifying areas of ample evidence as well as gaps in evidence.
Objective
This event explored what evidence is available and how it is being used, drawing on experiences from around the world and across India. Its objective was to convene a dialogue between researchers, policy-makers and practitioners around the usage of evidence in policy and programming.
