Both websites
I chose has valuable information related to early childhood education. The
outside links on the ACEI website are very informative and offer all types of
information within their region and across the globe. I research an area of the
website entitled advocating education for all and discovered that ACEI has
endorsed a letter to the United States House of Representatives asking for
their support for education for all. The letter signed by over 40 national and international
organizations dedicated to advancing education, health, food security,
democracy and governance, economic growth, peace, security, and human rights
around the world was written as part of the Global Campaign for Education –
U.S. Advocacy Day initiative. The Education for All Act is designed to build
upon current U.S. efforts to ensure universal access to quality education for
all children, and to develop a comprehensive global education strategy that
addresses key barriers to education access. It also includes a provision that
the U.S. engage with international education initiatives, such as the Global
Partnership for Education, in order to help further these goals, and work with
countries to strengthen systems that lead to sustainability.
The website does contain information that adds to my
understanding of equity and excellence in early care and education. The letter
to the House of Representatives asking for support for education for all is
evident of this. They also have other links within the website that contain
information related to equity and excellence.
Exploring the website this week, I understand how
important it can be to collaborate with other countries on issues related to
early childhood issues. By doing so, we open up opportunities to children and
their families that can richly enhance the educational experience. We also gain
knowledge and understanding that can help us increase equity and excellence in
the early childhood field.
