This chapter aims to relate the human development and capabilities approach to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child on the understanding that these approaches complement each other when addressing early childhood public policy. First sections focus on analysing both approaches and their contributions to early childhood. Focus is also on presenting the situation of the country and region where the analysed case was applied. Second is presented a case of early childhood policy whose design and implementation is based on both approaches. The following sections provide an account of the content of early childhood policy in Uruguay, in particular the case of Uruguay Crece Contigo [Uruguay Grows up with You]. The results obtained through such policy are then presented. Finally, by way of conclusion, the results obtained in the programme are analysed with the tools provided by the human development and capabilities approach and the rights approach. |
