Gabriela Buccini (Public Health) published a new article, "" in the Maternal and Child Nutrition journal.  Given the great variability in methods used to measure the nurturing care (NC) environment, valid approaches based on reliable indicators should be prioritized. The scoping review aimed to analyze the population-based approaches for monitoring the domains of the NC (e.g. good health, adequate nutrition, responsive caregiving, security and safety, and opportunities for early learning). It identified 32 population-based approaches. Most monitoring approaches lacked a robust equity approach. Disaggregated data is one of the most critical gaps for measuring the NC. User-friendly NC monitoring systems are needed by decision-makers. Future research should assess the usefulness of such population-based approaches to improve NC environments for ECD.
