儿童的幼年是解决不平等问题的机会之窗。支持儿童早期发展(ECD)的潜在好处包括从健康发展到更大的在校学习能力和成年后生产力的提高。事实上，通过幼儿发展计划对幼儿进行投资是一个国家在解决不平等、打破贫困循环和改善晚年生活成果方面所能做出的最明智的投资之一。在过去十年中，发展中国家扩大了提供学前教育的机会，世界所有地区都增加了学龄前教育的入学率。然而，今天，受益于这项关键的人类发展服务的儿童，特别是那些来自最贫穷家庭的儿童太少了。世界银行集团的SABER-幼儿发展工具使政策制定者能够评估和分析现有的幼儿发展政策和计划，找出差距和需要政策关注的领域，以促进所有儿童的健康和强劲发展。
A child’s earliest years present a window of opportunity to address inequality. The potential benefits from supporting early childhood development (ECD) range from healthy development to greater capacity to learn while in school and increased productivity in adulthood. In fact, investing in young children through ECD programs is one of the smartest investments a country can make to address inequality, break the cycle of poverty, and improve outcomes later in life. Developing countries have expanded access to preschool provision in the past decade, with all regions of the world increasing preprimary enrollment. Yet, today, far too few children, especially those from the poorest families, benefit from this critical human development service. The World Bank Group’s SABER-Early Childhood Development tool allows policymakers to take stock and analyze existing ECD policies and programs, identifying gaps and areas needing policy attention to promote healthy and robust development for all children.
