Biography:

His current work focuses on early child development as a lifelong determinant of health and the policy translations needed to fulfill Canada’s National Children's Agenda. To this end, he is carrying out province-wide research mapping children's development at kindergarten age.



Dr Hertzman’s research includes investigations into the determinants of health in Central and Eastern Europe and the Philippines, a historical cohort study of health, development and community change among 26,000 sawmill workers and their children, and the development of the BC Linked Health Database.

The language and culture of my heritage is passed on to me orally. it's a different way off learning than how I am taught at school. How do I keep my traditional culture alive while learning to read and being immersed in the majority culture?

Reading is the core of learning and staying in school . improving reading skills with young Aboriginal children can open up the doors to future prospects.
