Abstract

La popularidad de los programas de atención a la primera infancia ha aumentado en los últimos años dado que es en esa etapa cuando las intervenciones que se realizan con el fin de mejorar el desarrollo físico, cognitivo y socio-afectivo de los niños tienen un mayor impacto. Siguiendo lo encontrado por Heckman en sus investigaciones, las intervenciones que se realicen en esta etapa están correlacionadas con un mejor rendimiento académico del niño, menores tasas de deserción escolar, mayores ingresos a lo largo de la vida, menores tasas de morbilidad y tasas más bajas de criminalidad. El presente documento hará una revisión de los principales programas de atención a la primera infancia implementados en Colombia, con especial énfasis en los componentes de educación y nutrición en el Caribe.
