Regional Agenda for Early Childhood Development: Measuring Early Childhood Development

  • Reaffirm the importance of strengthening child development measurement systems, both through population surveys and child-by-child tracking systems.
  • Promote that all countries have consistent measurement systems, comparable at the regional level and with transparent information, to improve policies and programs.
  • Promote plans for the use of collected information, with data disaggregation to capture diversity and promote equity.

REGIONAL NETWORK TO MEASURE CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT (REMDI)

REMDI (for its acronym in Spanish) is a regional network of specialists that seeks to promote and facilitate current and future surveying and measuring efforts so that all Latin American and Caribbean countries have clear, technically sound mechanisms for evaluating childhood development at the national level.

The main objective of the network is to promote a common approach in the region for measuring early childhood development, involving regular and periodic national childhood development surveys. As a result, the approach allows for comparisons between countries and population subgroups within them, making it possible diagnoses that guide early childhood policies in the region.

As a regional network, REMDI includes representatives from the Inter-American Dialogue and of early childhood programs from the governments of Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay, Paraguay, Dominican Republic and El Salvador.
