Life Course Framework

The Life Course Framework is an approach that looks at a person's life as a connected series of events and experiences, shaped by early influences, opportunities, and social factors. It emphasizes that choices, circumstances, and relationships over time impact health, well-being, and development. Recognizing how childhood, education, work, and relationships intertwine helps us understand why people face different outcomes and how policies or interventions can improve life trajectories for individuals and communities. It encourages a comprehensive view that considers past experiences and future possibilities for better support and planning.
