The Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis has released this paper outlining the economic arguments for public funding of early childhood development.
This is part of the growing recognition world wide of the significance of early childhood for the future. These economic arguments are crucial if early childhood advocates are to be successful in their efforts to get increased government resources for quality early childhood programs in Australia. The vision for a national agenda for early childhood will be realised through policies and programs that require not just the maintenance of existing funds but also the allocation of additional resources.
