Projects

Thrive aims to address critical questions about early childhood development.

Our research examines what works, how it can be implemented at scale, and how we can ensure equity and inclusion. We currently have research projects in five focus countries: Bangladesh, Ghana, Kiribati, Sierra Leone and Tanzania. We are a large-scale, multi-country research and policy programme currently working across 5 nations with a vision for future growth. Explore projects from the areas we work below.
