“If we can create a society which sees the child within every adult – and the adult within every child – we will finally start to change it for the better.”
We want to make the link between the skills we develop in early childhood and the core foundations that set us up for life and help us to thrive as adults. To help give social and emotional skills the greater priority they deserve, The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood has conducted a first-of-its-kind global listening exercise, involving experts from 21 countries around the world, to catalogue and identify the skills in this area that matter most throughout our lives.
@Earlychildhood has undertaken work to find a common bridge and set of core skills that can apply equally to children and adults, so we can bring people together with a common language and vision to drive action at every level – protecting and strengthening these skills for current and future generations across the whole of society.
Through this exercise we found consensus around a set of skills that we develop and nurture during early childhood, but that continue to be enhanced and refined as we grow into adults. They relate to knowing ourselves, managing our emotions, focusing our thoughts, communicating with others, nurturing our relationships, and exploring the world. These are the skills that lay the foundations for our positive future mental health and resilience throughout our lives.
Healthy development of these core skills is not inevitable – they must be nurtured from our earliest moments of life. The foundations for these skills are laid in early childhood, between pregnancy and the age of five, which is why those earliest years represent such a golden opportunity to make a difference right from the start. But our social and emotional growth continues throughout our lifetime, and change is always possible.

A key milestone for the Centre for Early Childhood at the #ShapingUs National Symposium.
Today we brought together an influential cross-disciplinary group of leaders and experts with the shared endeavour of understanding how we lay foundations for happier, healthier lives, and, in turn, build a stronger and more nurturing world. Thank you to everyone that joined us.
This work, learning from child and adult specialists globally, is focused on the most important social and emotional life skills people need to thrive in the modern world – the foundations of which are laid in early childhood but continue to grow beyond it.
These are the skills for life that are fundamental to our future health and well-being, influencing everything from our ability to form positive relationships, to our capacity for learning and working, our ability to cope with adversity and our physical and mental health. Design Museum

📌 The #ShapingUs National Symposium
Social and emotional life skills do not receive enough attention, either during early childhood or throughout the rest of our lives. In fact, for many adults, the only time they are encouraged and supported to work on these skills, is at some sort of crisis point – when things have gone so far that psychological intervention is required, or rehabilitation, or prison.
It is therefore time we understood that building a healthier world means nurturing the foundations that support our children – everything from the systems that govern early care through to our attitudes to those raising the next generation, and the support they receive.
Tomorrow we are hosting The #ShapingUs National Symposium. We will bring together cross-disciplinary leaders, child and adult specialists, and global thinkers for the first time to consider how we grow, think, and behave throughout life, in order to build resilience for the future.
