 The overall goal will be to implement and evaluate an EI program for infants following birth asphyxia, which is sustainable in developing countries. The challenge will be to adapt programs demonstrated to be effective in developed countries to the circumstances of the developing world, while reducing the demands on resources. Because there are limited data on normative development and EI programs in developing countries, a group of infants without perinatal complications will also be randomized to the same conditions in order to provide a comparison of what may be achieved from the intervention in healthy infants in developing countries. A final aim will be to address individual variation in EI effects that could be due to child andor family characteristics.
