Material y Método Estudio cualitativo, fenomenológico y hermenéutico, con 16 adolescentes madres de niños menores de 5 años como informantes clave, a las cuales se les aplicó entrevista semi-estructurada hasta alcanzar saturación de información, guardando el rigor ético y metodológico correspondiente.

          ABSTRACT: Introduction When early childhood is given inadequate care, it can experience long-term damaging effects. In this sense, the cultural beliefs and practices of mothers are essential, especially when it comes to adolescents. The objective of this work was to know the beliefs and cultural practices of adolescent mothers in charge of taking care of their children under 5 years of age in a municipality of the Department of Bolívar (Colombia), during the second period of 2020. Method Qualitative, phenomenological, and hermeneutical study, with 16 adolescent mothers of children under 5 years of age as key informants, to whom a semi-structured interview was applied until information saturation was reached, keeping the corresponding ethical and methodological rigor. Results Beliefs about care were characterized because mothers think that it should be something integral, that it implies a lot of attention, and it helps to prevent disease. When taking care of their children, they experience feelings of affection, tenderness and gratitude to God. The teaching of the family is marked by myths, superstitions, and unfounded beliefs. The practices included breastfeeding and providing early complementary feeding. The relatives influenced the child's diet, especially mothers, grandmothers, and doctors. Conclusion The cultural beliefs and practices of the adolescent mothers were shaped by favorable thoughts and feelings, with practices that favor the well-being of their children.

            Early childhood development: an imperative for action and measurement at scale

            Experiences during early childhood shape biological and psychological structures and functions in ways that affect health, well-being and productivity throughout the life course. The science of early childhood and its long-term consequences have generated political momentum to improve early childhood development and elevated action to country, regional and global levels. These advances have made it urgent that a framework, measurement tools and indicators to monitor progress globally and in countries are developed and sustained. We review progress in three areas of measurement contributing to these goals: the development of an index to allow country comparisons of young children’s development that can easily be incorporated into ongoing national surveys; improvements in population-level assessments of young children at risk of poor early development; and the production of country profiles of determinants, drivers and coverage for early childhood development and services using currently available data in 91 countries. While advances in these three areas are encouraging, more investment is needed to standardise measurement tools, regularly collect country data at the population level, and improve country capacity to collect, interpret and use data relevant to monitoring progress in early childhood development.
