During a launch event at Holiday Inn, Deputy Prime Minister Manoa Kamikamica outlined the significance of the Early Childhood Development (ECD) Policy in Fiji. He stated that this initiative would serve as a cornerstone for a more robust economy and pave the way for a brighter future for all Fijians.

The ECD Policy is designed to ensure that every child in Fiji has access to adequate care, nutrition, and early learning opportunities. Moreover, it aims to shield children from abuse, neglect, violence, and conflict, fostering a safe and nurturing environment essential for their development.

This policy not only highlights the government’s commitment to children’s welfare but also reflects a vision for sustainable development grounded in early childhood care. By prioritizing the protection and nurturing of its youngest citizens, Fiji is investing in a healthier and more prosperous future.

In a world where the upbringing of children often lays the groundwork for societal stability and economic progress, this initiative presents a promising step forward for the nation. It symbolizes hope and responsibility towards nurturing the next generation, ensuring they have the opportunities and support needed to thrive.
