• Promote innovative financing models including blended finance, impact investing, CSR, and the Carbon for Care framework.
• Prioritize maternal mental health and caregiver well-being as a development priority.
• Strengthen partnerships across academia, government, NGOs, UN agencies, private sector, SUN networks, and communities.
• Advance ECD research, measurement, and academic training through AIOU's Center of Excellence.
