The Social Wellbeing Agency has published a summary of existing evidence on the relationship between aspects of parental, family, and whānau wellbeing and child wellbeing in early childhood, with a focus on the first 1000 days of a child's life. This research can be used to support decisions about where Government resources are best targeted, as part of the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet's Child and Youth Wellbeing Strategy. It forms part of the Social Wellbeing Agency's three year strategy by shining a light on policy issues that affect the wellbeing of New Zealanders.
Alongside the report, the Agency has created an A3 which summarises the evidence on critical factors for child wellbeing in the first 1000 days.
