Like everyone else, we’ve hunkered down a bit over the past 6 months or so staying safe and protecting our loved ones as best we can. And yet, even with the global pandemic going on around us, some great work and achievements have been happening concurrently.
We’d like to share some of that work with you to include in your library of resources.
The first is the Raising Canada 2020 publication “Top 10 Threats to Childhood in Canada and the Impact of COVID-19. “ Clearly a timely resource for us all to look at, and a good example of researchers and policy makers from across Canada coming together to pool their knowledge and resources to produce an excellent knowledge mobilization tool.
You can find more information and download the publication here: https://childrenfirstcanada.org/raising-canada
The other resources we are sharing come from UNICEF and are directed at understanding what shapes the understanding of the lives of children in developing countries. One of the resources, “Worlds of Influence: Understanding What Shapes Child Well-Being in Rich Countries” takes a global view, whereas the second resource, “Worlds Apart: Canadian Companion to UNICEF Report card 16” looks at the Canadian context in more detail. Downloads of these reports can be found below.
