Government investments in the early years, when it makes the most impact, can help build the resilience and adaptive capacities of individuals, families and communities. Pacific governments are moving forward with #ECD via a whole of government and whole of society approach.

Happy International Women's Day! Today and everyday, we pay tribute to women around the world, especially in our Pacific region, who are striving to make our communities, our workplaces and our homes, safe, healthy, inclusive and happy environments for everyone. #IWD2023

Our young children and youth climate champions shared their understanding and aspirations of the changing world around them, especially their beloved island home at last week's #2023ECDForum in Fiji. Pacific leaders have heard their voices and call to build a resilient future.

[Pacific Regional Council for ECD @PacificECD]

Our young children today will be critical actors in driving the ambitions of the 2050 vision for the Blue Pacific Continent. Their voices must be heard and included at the highest level on decisions that will affect their futures. They are tomorrow's leaders. #2023ECDForum

Vinaka Vakalevu to the traditional stewards of the land of the #2023ECDForum, Na Momo Levu na Tui Nadi and Vanua o Nadi, for the warm welcome to delegates in Fiji last week. The voices of your beautiful children was a poignant reminder that young children's voices are the future.

Great start to #2023ECDForum where leaders listened to and responded to children's views on their future. Investment in early childhood development is the best way to build a resilient Pacific.

Giving Pacific children the best start in life 💙

This week, we’re excited to hold the 2023 Pacific Early Childhood Development Forum, a gathering of government leaders and partners to ensure all young children across the blue Pacific continent reach their full potential.

Multi-sectoral support and collaboration to Early Childhood Development is vital. Happy to lead the Tonga delegation, together with Lord Vaea and senior officials from PMO, Finance, Education, Internal Affairs and Health. Already we met some amazing champions @PacificECD Forum.

I was raised by a grandmother who taught me to read, in English, off carton labels.

It takes a village to raise a child.

And its easier to raise strong children than to repair broken adults.
