The post-2015 draft Sustainable Development Goals include language on early childhood development programs and policies (for the first time beyond infant and maternal mortality). In the 2015-2030 period the challenge, across high-, middle-, and low-income countries alike, will be implementing early childhood development (ECD) policies and programs with quality at scale. This presentation will focus on these challenges and promising routes to quality implementation. Examples will be given from initiatives to improve preschool quality at scale in Chile and Boston, as well as work on ECD of the U.N. Sustainable Development Solutions Network (the research and technical advisory group providing input to the U.N. Secretary-General on the Sustainable Development Goals).
