Maternal Mental Health & Early Childhood Development: Evidence from Conflict-Affected Communities

Описание: By the end of 2020, 1 out of every 6 children was living in a region affected by violence and armed conflict. Repeated and traumatic exposure to violence at an early age can severely affect children’s mental health and can therefore hinder healthy development and derail their life trajectories. In this presentation, Professor Moya reports the results from a cluster-based randomized trial of Semillas de Apego, a community-based psychosocial model for mothers of young children affected by violence and forced displacement in Colombia.

Andrés Moya is an Associate Professor at the Department of Economics at the Universidad de los Andes in Bogotá, Colombia, and a 2021-22 Santo Domingo Visiting Scholar at the David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies (DRCLAS) at Harvard University.
