Early Childhood Development Data


The Human Early Learning Partnership (HELP) at UBC is dedicated to improving the health and well-being of children through interdisciplinary research and mobilizing knowledge.

The Collaborative is highly informed, and guided by the data generated and knowledge shared by HELP.

In March 2023, following the release of Wave 8 EDI data (2019-2022), HELP launched a new Early Development Instrument (EDI) Interactive Data Dashboard.
