We presented a selection of data from each domain. More data is available (See Supplementary file 1) for further research. Interesting future analysis on the CHECK2GO are (1) to compare the data with regional and national health statistics, which may provide indirect evidence for the effectiveness of the CHC centre in Kpalimé, (2) to assess the relationships between adverse early life events and development, health and well-being later in life, and (3) to develop a toolkit for countries for a comprehensive prevention policy for children between 0 and 18 years.
Data from the CHECK2GO study will adhere to the FAIR (http://datafairport.org/: Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) concepts. Within this legal framework, Association Soutien Enfants Togo (Stichting Kinderhulp Togo) can thus decide how and under which conditions the data can be shared. Researchers can apply for data sharing by submitting a proposal to Association Soutien Enfants Togo (Stichting Kinderhulp Togo) (https://www.kinderhulp-togo.nl/). Requests should include a study protocol and institutional review board approval. Furthermore, a data-use agreement is required.
