Abstract	As more children are growing up in cities than ever before, cities are investigating new ways to become more child-friendly, and to measure their progress towards this goal. Data dashboards are one tool that can help a city set policy priorities, monitor progress, encourage collaboration, inform decisions, increase accountability, and strengthen the voices of children. This report considers when dashboards are useful, how they work, and what makes them more effective in promoting child-friendly cities. This report explores how data dashboards could help guide city leaders and their teams to make better policy decisions about early childhood development (ECD). Based on interviews with experts and practitioners in early childhood development, cities, and national government data teams, the authors outline the conditions that need to be considered when creating and designing an effective data dashboard. Building an effective dashboard is not without challenges. Significant inequalities in resources exist between cities and regions, making it harder to collect and process data. However, cities such as Teresina in Brazil and Istanbul in Turkey are finding innovative ways of overcoming these challenges, via proxy indicators or new partnerships. Through a range of case studies, the authors identify the problems and solutions faced when creating a good dashboard, at the practical and strategic levels. They hope that this report can help cities to develop targeted dashboards that can help them implement better policies for children. While dashboards are not always the right tool, the authors found they can become indispensable in the effort of transforming early child development if carefully designed to suit a team's needs, strategy and resources.
