| Sumario: | There is solid and growing empirical evidence on the long run benefits of interventions through home-visits, comprehensive health care and stimulation during the first thousand days of life of a child in a situation of extreme vulnerability. In this paper we perform a comparative analysis between the Thousand Days program implemented in the Municipality of San Miguel (MilD-SM), Argentina, since August 2015 and the A Thousand Days National program (MilD-N), created in 2020. We find that although declaratively both programs share the same aims of promoting abilities and capacities of pregnant women and children, operationally, they differ substantially in the intervention-instruments in course so far. While A MilD-SM implemented home-visits with an interdisciplinary and multidimensional approach from the very beginning, the MilD-N program, so far, has exclusively used cash transfers. |
