Title: Measure What Matters:Toward Multi-Sectoral Action to Improve Child and Youth Health and Well-being
Abstract: Despite Canada’s strengths and widespread acknowledgment of the importance of children and
youth, this country recently ranked 30th among 38 high-income countries on indicators of their
well-being (UNICEF Innocenti 2020). While there are limited data readily available for monitoring
within and across jurisdictions, Alberta compares worse than Canadian averages on indicators of
early development vulnerability and child abuse (PHAC 2023a).
