When our caregivers and communities – and our schools, health and other services – are informed by neuroscience we can build healthier brains and bodies and improve learning, wellbeing and resilience.
The Thriving Kids Brain Builders Initiative (TKBBI) is directly supporting child development in Queensland by applying neuroscience to improve practice and connection across the systems that support children, young people and their families.
Over the past two years we’ve strengthened relationships across research, workforce and community sectors throughout Queensland, turning knowledge about brain development into real-world impact.
