The development of inclusive programmes and services for early childhood care and education is a priority of Sustainable Development Goal 4 on education to which the international community has committed itself to achieve by 2030.

This publication calls for a renewed global commitment to early childhood inclusion through the presentation of qualitative and quantitative data and action-oriented thinking. It presents lessons from country practices and recent research to provide policy-makers, partners, and ECCD practitioners with guidelines for action.

The publication contains key messages that stakeholders can draw upon for actions that address the diversity and trajectory of each child.
