NIFTeY advocates for investment in the crucial early period of life and provides information on the importance of the early years (including the prenatal period) to health, development and well-being throughout life.

The early years of life are critical to development and have vital implications throughout life. The ability to live life to the fullest - to love and care for others, to achieve goals in work, leisure and family life - is founded on early life experience. We should invest in the early years, acknowledging their equal importance to school and university education. |

The NIFTeY/CCCH 2011 Conference will also mark NIFTeY’s 10th anniversary and celebrate 10 years of successful conferences, of producing papers to assist governments providing latest evidence of research and practice, and giving children a voice in policy formation. |
