Early childhood education and care

Studies of the characteristics and conditions of the early childhood workforce, their competences and experiences of early childhood settings, children and their perspectives, and parents.

 Our research in early childhood education and care has been highly influential over many years. We founded the international network on leave policies and take an active part in the production of its annual international review of parenting leave. We also carry out policy analyses and bring critical perspectives to bear, to stimulate debate in the field.
