Integration of ECD Interventions into Health and Nutrition Services: Experiences from Ethiopia and Mozambique

Momentum for integrating elements of the Nurturing Care framework that support early childhood development (ECD) outcomes, such as responsive care and early learning, into existing health and nutrition services is growing. Sharing these integration experiences would better support practitioners to learn from and apply these approaches to their own context. Join us to learn about two such examples: 1) the Nurturing Care Group Model implemented by Strengthen Productive Safety Net Program and Resilience (SPIR) II, a USAID-funded Resilience Food Security Activity in Ethiopia; and 2) integration of ECD interventions with Transform Nutrition’s ongoing nutrition, sanitation, and hygiene activities in Mozambique.
