Mulumbo Early Childhood Care and Development
Mulumbo Early Childhood Care and Development runs community-based centers that provide ECED services to children ages 0-8 in economically vulnerable communities in Zambia, advocates for increased national attention to ECED, and mentors other ECED programs.
How do ECCD Programmes work?
They are holistic and promote a combination of nutrition, health care and education to help improve the young children's welfare and development.
ECCD is inclusive, builds on indigenous child-car practices, respects cultural and ethnic linguistic diversity of children and integrates children with disabilities and special education needs.
