In late 2021, the Early Years Catalyst commissioned Orange Compass to undertake a major systems mapping process to better understand the factors influencing early childhood development outcomes in Australia today. This work was informed by more than 300 people from across the country with knowledge and insights of how the early years system currently operates on the ground.
The systems mapping process generated a range of complex, fascinating and thought-provoking findings – both about how things ‘are’ (the current state) and how they ‘could be’ (the future state).
In this webinar, the Early Years Catalyst and Orange Compass share what we have discovered about the systemic forces at play in the early years field, possible leverage points for change and the implications and next steps for the work of the Early Years Catalyst and wider field.
