Why Should You Join? Have you ever wondered:
  • How long does it really take to build a brain?
  • Are all stages of childhood development equally important, or is there a stage that's crucial?
  • What happens in early brain development, and how does it occur?
  • What helps and what disrupts brain development in young children?
These are just some of the key questions we'll explore throughout the programme. Together, we'll dive deep into topics such as:
  • How the brain develops
  • Positive and negative conditions for children's brain development
  • The role of environments in shaping experiences and exposures
  • The impact of built and natural environments, and systemic factors
  • Debunking common myths about child development
  • Why every brain is unique

Our sessions will help you understand the intricate factors that influence brain development. From the social and environmental conditions that shape a child's experiences to how systemic policies impact their growth, we'll provide you with the knowledge you need to support healthy, thriving brains.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn and grow alongside others passionate about understanding children's development.
