Can early childhood education programs support positive outcomes for indigenous children? A systematic review of the international literature

However, research on the impact of early education specifically for indigenous children is sparse. This systematic review of the international literature identified programs in early childhood education settings targeting indigenous children's learning, development and wellbeing."
