Providing children with equal opportunities to grow, develop, learn and play is fundamental. Recognizing children’s inner potential no matter their economic background, gender, ethnicity, race, religion, and creating environments that respects and values diversity are key to creating equitable services. Children thrive in places that nurture their potential.


ISSA continues to dedicate many of its initiatives to promoting equity in early years services. Special attention is paid to Romani and Traveller children and their families and to refugee children.
