lifestyle and relates to cognitive/socio-emotional domains of human
functioning. Yet, recent literature indicates a decline in (pre)school
children's MC, while MC development and its influencing factors are
hardly documented in 1- to 3-year-olds. As such, the WHO pinpoints

A study into the effects of a blended professional development program on pre-primary teachers' Language Stimulating COmpetenceS (LASCOS) Ghent University
The quality of language stimulating interactions in early childhood
education (ECE) has an important impact on the academic language
skills of young children, which in turn is a powerful predictor of learning
success. Although research shows that high quality teacher-child
interactions are crucial for academic language learning, paradoxically, a
wide range of classroom interaction studies ...

The implications of the Lisbon Treaty for the delimitation of EU development and security competences: a case study on Sub-Saharan Africa Ghent University
This PhD research will analyse how the Lisbon Treaty influences the criteria that are used for the horizontal (among EU institutions and policies) and vertical (between the EU and the Member States) division of competences regarding development and security policies. The research will assess how this competence delimination affects EU external action in Sub-Saharan Africa.
