Answer:
The Mali Empire collapsed in the 1460s CE following civil wars, the opening up of trade routes elsewhere, and the rise of the neighbouring Songhai Empire, but it did continue to control a small part of the western empire into the 17th century CE
Explanation:
The correct answer is experimental research. There are few successful early interventions on a meaningful scale, seemingly due to a lack of learning and information sharing across local authority areas, and the failure to robustly evaluate many government and charity interventions. Expert interviews suggest that practice varies significantly by local authority area, and there is a need to identify, evaluate and scale-up interventions that work. Experts identified three main areas of early intervention to improve outcomes for children in care: 1. Supporting care leavers, including through employability and accommodation support. 2. Raising educational attainment. 3. Mental health and emotional wellbeing support. Supporting the transition out of care is the area at which most initiatives are targeted. There is a need for more upstream support to contribute to improving outcomes for care leavers, for example, supporting improved educational attainment.
