TA to Ministry of Gender Equality Poverty Eradication and Social Welfare and Ministry of Education Arts and Culture Contract related to: TA to Ministry of Gender Equality Poverty Eradication and Social Welfare and Ministry of Education Arts and Culture - The action targets to improve access to early childhood development (ECD) in Namibia, and will be implemented through budget support and complementary support. Sustainable Development Goal target 4.2 calls for all girls and boys to have access to quality early childhood development, care and pre-primary education by 2030. Nonetheless, early childhood development (ECD) access in Namibia not only exhibits stark regional inequalities, but also remains low overall. Namibia faces many challenges in the education sector, such as decreasing learning outcomes, high secondary school dropout rates and high repetition rates. Some regions have rather low percentages of children attending school, which is correlated with inaccessibility of schools and pre-schools for many rural children. Once in school, children from poorer backgrounds tend to do much worse than those from wealthier families. There is consolidated scientific evidence that the period of a child¿s life from 0 to 8 years of age is critical for building a strong foundation for healthy development, lifelong learning and school achievement. Therefore, implementing quality ECD programmes targeted to the most vulnerable children is a highly cost-effective strategy to ensure that all children develop to their full potential. In the medium to long term, investments in ECD will also leverage many positive secondary effects on both economic growth and social progression, as ECD lays the foundation for a healthy, educated and capacitated workforce.ECD has gained a lot of momentum in Namibia during recent years. The implementation of ECD services is guided by a National Integrated ECD Policy that foresees ECD services to be delivered in a comprehensive way (covering all aspects of children¿s development, including cognitive, social, emotional and physical abilities) and in an integrated way (with strengthened inter-ministerial coordination and with the support from civil society and private sector). This policy framework is conducive to see Namibia making progress under SDG 4, as well as SDG 10.
