2023/24 Early years community innovation partner insights

The Early Years team have a community innovation fund which supports locally led initiatives that support māmā, pēpi, and whānau in the first 1,000 days of a child’s life. Initiatives supported include activities that focus on maternal mental wellbeing, culturally relevant antenatal education, policy advice, or resources for whānau and the child wellbeing sector. We prioritise partnerships that focus on sustainable, intergenerational approaches to wellbeing. View the list of 2023/24 grant partners.
