Story on the Office of American Projects
The Discussion Paper Series on Indigenous Early Childhood Intervention is intended to advance and disseminate knowledge on early childhood intervention programs that are culturally-based and have a focus on Indigenous children.
Papers are typically pre-publication drafts of on-going research that may stimulate comment and interest in the well-being of young Indigenous children. The scope of the Series is both comprehensive and multidisciplinary.
We encourage any submissions.
