Inequality and Child Development in Deprived Populations

Lecture Series - Inequality and ... ?

The ‘Inequality and ... ?’ lecture series is organised by the EIB Institute and Uni.lu (MARS) together with LIS, STATEC, Chambre de Salaries and LISER, with the financial support of the FNR. LISER is a proud partner in helping gather the research community, the private and public sectors and the general public in Luxembourg to discuss concepts of inequality.

This lecture will discuss how interventions at early childhood affect key outcomes among disadvantaged children, including cognition, language and social skills. It will also examine how such interventions change the behaviour of households towards their children, and more generally the way such interventions may be propagated and possibly amplified by changes in parental behaviour.
