JAMM continues to collect data to support efforts locally and globally for all children to have access to the lifelong benefits that music education provides, especially when it is offered early in a child's life.  This webpage acts as a gathering place of research, articles and videos to support the work of music educators worldwide. 

We invite readers to share links to resources so that we can collectively update and build our evidence-based work.
