- Poverty is an issue that must be addressed on an international level.
- Educational inequities exist in various capacities worldwide, and advocacy for equality is needed globally.
- Funding limitations plague early childhood care and education on an international basis, and in no way are budget restrictions limited to the United States.
One of my professional goals deals with working towards finding equity in early childhood care and education for all. I will strive to establish and maintain contact with early childhood professionals worldwide in efforts to collaborate in tackling issues facing our field today. While poverty, funding limitations, and inequities certainly challenge the field throughout the United States, these issues exist abroad as well. By working collaboratively, we can work towards finding solutions to these challenges on a global scale - a necessary step if we are searching for true equity for all.
Parker, I have too realized that many of the issue that our country face regarding funding and inequity does exist across the globe. Working with internationals as a team will surly close the gap on inequality services for many children and families. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI believe staying in contact with global connections and seeing what is being done to break the cycle of poverty may lead to insights we can use here. I want to let you know that I have appreciated reading your blog. You bring a lot of professionalism to field.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you 100%. Until I took the course, I hadn't realized how important it is for me to advocate for children. I always prided myself for working on behalf of children behind the scenes but I see that is just a tip of the iceberg. Thanks for sharing.
