- Communities have the answers to many of the challenges and questions we are facing. Place-based approaches that bring decision-making and leadership closer to children, youth, and whānau in their own communities are gaining recognition worldwide as an important mechanism for achieving better and more equitable outcomes.
In this kōrero, Aimee Hadrup, Manager of Tamariki Wellbeing at The Southern Initiative shares insights from her recent Harkness Fellowship, where she engaged with a range of innovative early years-focussed place-based initiatives in the US.
Aimee shares learnings from community-led systems change efforts that are moving beyond a focus on discrete programmes and services, towards strengthening the ecosystem for early childhood development in the places where children and whānau live their lives. This session provides an opportunity to kōrero together around what is needed in Aotearoa to support locally led systems change and ensure all tamariki get a great start in life.
