摘要：In this paper, we describe the design of a baseline to set the values of child development in Bolivia, for children between birth and six years of age. It details the process of design and definition of the objectives of the baseline, and its methodological and operational aspects in relation to child development. Having the baseline of child development of Bolivian children up to six years old, by applying instruments adapted to the social, cultural, linguistic and family context of Bolivia, will be very useful since these development data can be used to compare them with international standards of child development commonly accepted, which is not possible at present. Moreover, establishing the baseline of child development in Bolivia will allow to compare the data currently obtained with those obtained by applying other not contextualized developmental scales commonly used in the country, such as the Abbreviated Scale Development Nelson Ortiz, the Ages & Stages Questionnaire (ASQ), Battelle Development Inventory or the National Screening Test (PRUNAPE).
