A person’s health at each stage of life affects health at other stages, and also has cumulative effects for the next generation. A poor start in life can lead to poor health, nutrition and inadequate learning, resulting in low adult earnings as well as social tensions. This fact sheet includes facts and figures, outlines the challenges, charts indicators of progress and shares commitments made by Member States to tackle this issue.
