Community Development
Helping communities and neighbourhoods support family and child
development is a key part of the UEY project. One of the goals
is to help communities use the research results to develop action
plans. These action plans must follow some guiding principles:
- prevention and early intervention focus
- child-focused and family-centred
- neighbourhood-based and community-driven
- grass roots participation
- universal access
- reflects and respects diversity/equity
- capacity-building, asset-based approach
- inclusive
- encourages collaboration and partnerships
Knowledge Action Plan
The report outlines the strategies for sharing the results of
the UEY research through a participatory process that involves
the communication and integration of the UEY research findings
for action within the community. The knowledge transfer process
to the community is intended to foster better developmental
outcomes for children.
