This paper explores how iACT invests in the capacity of refugee community members to provide an early learning program that exceeds global standards for child-friendly spaces and the nurturing care model by prioritizing children’s rights.

Little Ripples, an iACT education program, is a refugee-led and culturally-relevant early childhood development program that builds the capacity of displaced women and improves the early development of children ages three to six.

Home-based child care (or HBCC) is one of the most popular forms of child care for the world’s 0.8 billion children under six […] Yet despite the prevalence of HBCC, very little is known about the programs that support HBCC providers in their role.

Little Ripples profiled by Education Above All (EAA) as an innovative organization with education programs grounded in community and designed for their unique contexts.

Levels of displacement are the highest on record: as of February 2019, 68.5 million people worldwide have been forcibly displaced, of whom 25.4 million hold refugee status – over half of them under the age of 18 (UNHCR, online).

This field note presents findings from an assessment conducted on the Little Ripples program, which was piloted with Burundian refugee children ages three to five in Tanzania.
