Early Years. It’s the biggest crisis you’d never heard of. Half the world’s children are being left without the care and learning they need to thrive. So we asked a simple question: what if we made that crisis unignorable?

We enlisted the one set of voices everybody listens to — the kids themselves. Through hand-scrawled messages and angry doodles, children’s voices now cut through official documents and campaigns, from the streets of New York to the floors of the UN General Assembly.

And it won Early Years a diverse backing, from Sesame Workshop to President Lula of Brazil.
