In May 2022, UNICEF commissioned Ecorys to carry out a Situation Analysis of early childhood education and care (ECEC) services in support of Ukrainian refugees across EU member states. The research aims to provide insights to country level responses to the crisis, and to inform ongoing actions regarding ECEC provision for Ukrainian refugee children. The work is being carried out in close cooperation with the European Commission (DG EAC) and the EU Working Group on ECEC, who have provided invaluable support.
