The authors of a new Perspective argue that to address drivers of poor child health, society should move from responding to health crises one symptom and one child at a time to reimagining ecosystems in ways that facilitate healthy development. Learn more: https://t.co/2qqFfCqDnX
A quote from a Perspective published in the New England Journal of Medicine reads as follows: “Decades of design choices have led to systems in which markets are the primary drivers of health, caregiving infrastructure is fragmented, and prevention is devalued and chronically underfunded.” The Perspective is titled “Declining Child Health in the United States — Addressing the Developmental Ecosystem” and the authors are Christopher B. Forrest, M.D., Ph.D., and Neal Halfon, M.D., M.P.H. To the right is an illustration of an iceberg representing factors driving declines in child health. The iceberg is separated into four sections: "Surface Level: Declines in physical, neurodevelopmental, and mental health"; "Proximal Drivers: Developmental processes altered by exposures throughout the life course"; "Structural Drivers: Degraded natural and social systems"; and "Foundational Drivers: Antiquated cultural narratives about children’s needs."
