A week — and many degrees — ago ☀️
I attended #AMES2026 at NYU Abu Dhabi, where I presented work on the #menopause #penalty (w/ @rginja.bsky.social Petra Persson & Barton Willage) in a Health Shocks session.
Great discussion, excellent keynotes, and lovely to see colleagues from near and far! 🌴

Back at the Abu Dhabi Early Childhood Authority 🇦🇪—energised by the ambition & pace of action.
Great discussion on evidence-based early intervention: earlier action, sharper targeting, better long-term outcomes—and the crucial role of delivery + measurement. 🚀

Italian parliament unanimously votes to make femicide a crime
The gender-motivated murder of a woman will now be covered by a distinct clause in Italian law - punishable by a life sentence.
www.bbc.co.uk
Italy becomes the 1️⃣ country in Europe to recognise femicide as a specific crime — Parliament voted unanimously.
Proud of my country for calling gender-based violence what it is, & for taking a decisive step toward real accountability and protection. 🇮🇹✨

📍 Core takeaway: early-years commitment must sit across all of government — health, DfE, Treasury, local authorities, communities — not just in isolated programmes.
The APPG is quickly becoming a vital space for evidence-driven, cross-party progress. Energising to be part of this effort. ✨

I highlighted four priorities for a modern, equitable early-years system ⬇️
1️⃣ #Workforce: recruitment, retention, and clarity on who delivers what from pregnancy–age 2.
2️⃣ #Integration: reduce the maze; rebuild universal, joined-up support.

The discussion moved far beyond childcare → into pregnancy, parental leave, early relational health, family hubs, developmental milestones… and yes, Sure Start, still one of the clearest examples of what universal, integrated support can achieve when government works as one. 🔗
