Researching the UNESCO site
As I perused the United Nations Educational, Scientific, & Cultural Organization (UNESCO) website I found a few aspects of their organization that matched up loosely with my professional goals as an early childhood professional. My Goal: To continue to develop professionally so I can be a better educator
UNESCO: Provides continuous trainings for their early childhood personnel worldwide so they can further their professional development and keep up with the newest findings so they can provide the best for the children they service
My Goal: To inspire societal change in the way early childhood is viewed
UNESCO: Encourages and implements global change in the view of early childhood by outlining the differences in primary care and pre-primary care. They also make known that learning begins at birth not when a child begins formal schooling
My Goal: To advocate for military children and families and educate adults (parents, EC professionals) about child development
UNESCO: In addition to providing updated professional development for their personnel, they also provide parental education in every area of the world they service
Hi Lemora,
ReplyDeleteUNESCO is a great website. They are doing so much for other countries. It is refreshing to know they are providing continuous training for educators. As educators we never stop learning, no matter where we live. There is much to learn.
It is also good to know they involve families as well. Thanks for sharing.

Lemora, it's great to see how closely related your goals matched up with the website! I also reviewed this website and found that they provide so much information on things going on around the world. For example they had a link to a story about the first International Day of the Girl Child, in which they raise awareness of discrimination and creating strong action for human rights.
