First Years First Priority is a Europe-wide campaign set up to advocate for prioritization of early childhood development in public policies, with a particular focus on families and children who are at greater risk of discrimination and exclusion.
We aim to ensure that all young children aged 0 to 6 have equal opportunities to safe, healthy and optimal development.
