dc.description.abstractThis book seeks to achieve a balance, describing challenges that are being faced as well as developments that are underway. It seeks a balance in terms of the voices heard, including not just voices of the North commenting on the South, but voices from the South, and in concert with the North. It seeks to provide the voices of specialists and generalists, of those from international and local organizations, from academia and the field. It seeks a diversity of views and values. Such diversity and complexity are the reality of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) today. The major focus of this book is on SSA from the Sahel south. Approximately 130 million children between birth and age 6 live in SSA. Every year 27 million children are born, and every year 4.7 million children under age 5 die. Rates of birth and of child deaths are consistently higher in SSA than in any other part of the world; the under-5 mortality rate of 163 per 1,000 is twice that of the rest of the developing world and 30 times that of industrialized countries (UNICEF 2006). Of the children who are born, 65 percent will experience poverty, 14 million will be orphans affected by HIV/AIDS directly and within their families and one-third will experience exclusion because of their gender or ethnicity.en
dc.description.abstractOn lit beaucoup de choses sur l’Afrique, souvent peu encourageantes. Au quotidien, le monde entend parler des maladies, du désespoir et de la mort. Une telle litanie de souffrances n’est pas sans fondement, mais il y a aussi des histoires d’espoir, des promesses et du potentiel. Elles aussi représentent une part très importante de l’histoire complexe de l’Afrique subsaharienne (ASS) dans les premières années du XXIème siècle. Tout comme il existe de multiples histoires, il faut donc des perspectives multiples pour comprendre, prévoir, et planifier un avenir prometteur pour les enfants africains. Ce livre vise à atteindre un équilibre en décrivant les défis qui se posent aussi bien que les développements en cours. Il cherche un équilibre des voix qui s’élèvent, il ne retient pas seulement les voix du Nord commentant sur le Sud, mais aussi les voix venant du Sud, et celles qui parlent de concert avec le Nord. Il cherche une diversité d’opinions et de valeurs. Le livre est divisé en six sections. La section 1, « Contextes Â», ouvre le débat avec un aperçu de la situation des jeunes enfants en Afrique subsaharienne . La section 2, Â« Perspectives sociohistoriques Â», offre trois perspectives sur le développement du DPE en Afrique. La section 3, « Le développement de politiques Â», fait le point sur des études de cas qui ont eu lieu en 2000–01. La section 4, « Les programmes Â», aborde une série d’approches qui offrent assistance aux jeunes enfants et à leurs familles. La section 5, « Ã‰valuations et recherche Â», offre une gamme d’approches récentes pour mieux comprendre l’impact des programmes. La section 6 résume le « Défis et voies à suivre Â».fr
