While the use of ECEC is a very effective lever for reducing developmental inequalities in early childhood, these facilities are themselves marked by strong inequalities in access. Understanding the reason of these inequalities in access is therefore crucial. Affordability and accessibility barriers (e.g., shortage of places, access criteria) are known to hinder participation of underprivileged families to ECEC. However, we have shown in a previous systematic review and meta-analysis that information barriers (e.g., underprivileged parents overestimate the costs of these facilities) could also contribute to these access inequalities. The goal of my dissertation is to investigate these information barriers to ECEC for underprivileged parents through a Randomised Controlled Trial design in the French context, and to compare them with accessibility and accessibility barriers.
