Amilcar Huancahuari Tueros is the Mayor of Santa Nazarena in the Peruvian Andes. Amilcar believes that the early stimulation of children’s brains can make for a more prosperous, less violent society. We visit the Harvard scientists trying to decide if science agrees. We look at some old parenting styles, such as not talking to children, or avoiding eye contact, and see how these practices are changing. Finally, we talk to a young Turkish architect, who believes that her own life proves that the Mayor's dream can be a reality. It is now clear that the first five years of a child’s life are vital, but are we acting on what we know?
