World leaders, pay attention!

We are facing an early years crisis. So we are starting a Global Tantrum.

A movement demanding quality childcare and preschool, primary healthcare and nutrition services, for young children everywhere.

No more hiding. No more underfunding! We want to hear real plans and see big moves.

Our Global Tantrum is getting louder. The longer you ignore us, the louder we’ll get.

Join the Global Tantrum.

Comedian and presenter Matt Lucas has kicked off the Global Tantrum with this film. Please share it online!

Children under eight can join the Global Tantrum by submitting their own Tantrum Posters. We'll take them to world leaders when we meet them in September. Here's how...
