Rapid Growth of Family Support Programmes Calls for Accelerated Research Agenda

UNICEF

UNICEF Office of Research - Innocenti recently convened an "Expert Consultation on Family and Parenting Support," bringing together experts from fifteen countries to establish a global research framework designed at improving policies aimed at supporting families and parenting across contexts. At the conclusion of the consultation, the experts agreed on a three-year research agenda that will identify and assess major gaps in evidence, particularly around which parental competencies are associated with the best outcomes for children and what systems are required to support those competencies.
