However, the underlying cognitive and biological mechanisms linking early adversities to these outcomes remain poorly understood. Understanding the intricate interplay between various factors influencing child development forms the cornerstone for developing effective interventions.\n\nThe CHAMP project aims to fill this knowledge gap by comprehensively examining the mental health and cognitive development of children across diverse environments, including residential care, foster care, and boarding homes in Luxembourg. Employing a holistic and interdisciplinary approach, the project will investigate psychological, biological, educational, and social aspects of early adversity for the first time in a single project in Luxembourg.\n\nThe findings will not only inform policy and practice within Luxembourg but also contribute to international efforts in understanding the complex relationships between risk and protective factors affecting child mental health, encompassing contextual, psychological, and epigenetic influences. By shedding light on how early adversity affects mental health and learning at both biological and psychological levels, this research will pave the way for the development of more effective interventions and support services for children in difficult life circumstances.
