It presents a comprehensive, multi-sectorial framework that aims to provide guidance to UNICEF country offices on how to improve programme interventions and synergies between programme areas in order to enhance young childrenโ€™s development potential by reducing their exposure to violence. While early childhood is understood as the period from conception until age 8, the framework emphasizes the critical period from age 0-3.
