An incredibly important investment in the future of Canada. Longitudinal data is key to understanding the impacts of COVID-19 on children, youth, and their families.
The 2023 CHSCY survey will follow 27,000 Canadian children and youth who completed the 2019 CHSCY survey. 🙌
Today, Minister Filomena Tassi announced an investment of $3.1M to researchers at the @OffordCentre @McMasterU to study the effects of #Covid19 on children in Canada.

Using the national 2019 Canadian Health Survey on Children and Youth (CHSCY), we explored “Provincial and Territorial Variation in Barriers in Accessing Healthcare for Children and Youth With Mental and Neurodevelopmental Health Concerns in Canada”.

👀👉 ~1/3 of children or youth requiring or receiving services for mental or neurodevelopment health concerns reported barriers to access to care.

This Countdown case study and commentary describe contextual factors for Kyrgyzstan's reductions in newborn, <5 child, and maternal deaths and stillbirths during 1990-2018. It describes the need for scale-up of essential interventions to achieve further reductions by 2030.
