(EAP-ECDS) may be used for direct assessment of children ranging in age from 3 to 5 years. They are the first regional child assessment tool developed based on the culture and values of countries of a world region. The EAP-ECDS were developed between 2010 and 2014 with support of UNICEF, the Asia-Pacific Regional Network for Early Childhood (ARNEC) and the Open Society Foundations (OSF). Technical leadership and guidance for the development and validation of the EAP-ECDS were provided by the Early Childhood Development and Education Research Team, Faculty of Education, The University of Hong Kong.

Yet, culturally and contextually appropriate child development assessments are considered particularly important in developing regions to support evidence-based policy making, investment and programming for early childhood. Thus, the EAP-ECDS aimed to equip the key Early Child Development (ECD) stakeholders in EAP countries with a reliable measurement tool to assess the holistic developmental progress of children of pre-primary age.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fa5e8c1 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-eael-creative-button\" data-id=\"fa5e8c1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"eael-creative-button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t        <div class=\"eael-creative-button-wrapper\">\n\n            <a class=\"eael-creative-button eael-creative-button--default\" href=\"https:\/\/hkece.edu.hku.hk\/chinese\/contact\/\" data-text=\"\">\n\n\t    \n                <div class=\"creative-button-inner\">\n\n                    \n                    <span class=\"cretive-button-text\">Book a Consultation &amp; Subscription<\/span>\n\n                                    <\/div>\n\t                        <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-adb9722 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"adb9722\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-85316b9 eael-infobox-icon-bg-shape-none eael-infobox-icon-hover-bg-shape-none elementor-widget elementor-widget-eael-info-box\" data-id=\"85316b9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"eael-info-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t        <div class=\"eael-infobox icon-on-left\">\n\t            <div class=\"infobox-icon eael-icon-only\">\n\n            \n                            <div class=\"infobox-icon-wrap\">\n                    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-book-open\" viewbox=\"0 0 576 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M542.22 32.05c-54.8 3.11-163.72 14.43-230.96 55.59-4.64 2.84-7.27 7.89-7.27 13.17v363.87c0 11.55 12.63 18.85 23.28 13.49 69.18-34.82 169.23-44.32 218.7-46.92 16.89-.89 30.02-14.43 30.02-30.66V62.75c.01-17.71-15.35-31.74-33.77-30.7zM264.73 87.64C197.5 46.48 88.58 35.17 33.78 32.05 15.36 31.01 0 45.04 0 62.75V400.6c0 16.24 13.13 29.78 30.02 30.66 49.49 2.6 149.59 12.11 218.77 46.95 10.62 5.35 23.21-1.94 23.21-13.46V100.63c0-5.29-2.62-10.14-7.27-12.99z\"><\/path><\/svg>                <\/div>\n            \n            \n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"infobox-content eael-icon-only\">\n            <h2 class=\"title\">Publications and News\u200b<\/h2>        <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5a0fe6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f5a0fe6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Research reports<\/p><ul><li style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><ul><li>Rao, N., Richards, B., Umayahara, M., Sun, J., Bacon-Shone, J., Ip, P., Lee, D., &amp; Becher, Y.
