Abstract:
Early childhood care and education (ECCE) for deaf1 is facilitated in economically rich countries by early identification and prompt access to family-centred intervention. For most low-income countries, this starting point cannot be assumed, and context-sensitive models are needed. Interviews with caregivers of deaf children in Ghana highlight the value of understanding the influence of the environment on caregiver-child relationships and supportive interaction as a basis for the development of ECCE. � 2022 Elsevier Ltd
