The UNICEF 2020 Report Card revealed that while Canada ranks among the countries with the strongest economic, environmental, and social conditions for growing up, it ranks 30th of 38 countries in measures of children’s mental and physical health, education, and social wellbeing. As well, existing inequities have worsened as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The time to make children a priority is NOW!
Working in collaboration and partnership with passionate stakeholders, we are co-designing a bold cross-sector framework to improve the health and wellbeing of children, youth, and families. This ambitious but achievable framework will be used as a roadmap to organizational, community, and governmental action to improve our global standing and create a Canada fit for children.
