This course introduces the children's rights paradigm focused on child protection and participation, based on the United Nations Convention Rights of the Child (UNCRC).
The gap between theories and practices remains pervasive. Our aim is to have a space to develop conversations with Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) practitioners on how to implement children's rights in a culturally sensitive manner. We believe that teachers and parents have valuable prior knowledge and experiences, and that in this course, we will re-construct our understanding of children and children's rights together.
This course is designed for ECCE teachers, parents, practitioners, researchers, students, academicians, and policymakers concerned about children's’ rights.
