Abstract
'As this is the first issue of Ilifa Insights, we share some of the pivotal programmatic activities cutting across the past year of our work. These include articles on defining an Essential Package of ECD services and clarifying human resource needs to enable the provision of ECD services at scale, both of which informed the development of South Africa’s draft national ECD policy and programme. The importance of focusing on district-level capacity to achieve population coverage is demonstrated by an article on Ilifa’s endeavours in KwaZulu Natal. We are also excited to introduce two Game Changers in this edition: social franchising for ECD and the factors impacting government funding of ECD services.’ [p. 5]
