Consequences of Learning about the international Early Childhood field:
1. International concerns for young children have some similarities to issues that we face in US.
2. All children despite their socio-economic status deserve the right to grow and thrive in a healthy environment.
3. Our profession is really a profession! There are global organizations working on behalf of children and their families.
One goal that needs to be addressed globally is universal health care for families especially young children.
About Me

- Hello welcome to ncouraging minds my name is Tarsha. I am passionate about early intervention, parent education, and providers/teachers who serve young children. I enjoying conducting educational seminars and helping participants gain new knowledge. Most importantly I gain the most satisfaction from "light bulb" moments that participants have in my seminars.

Exploring UNESCO'S Website
Within the division on UNESCO, there are several components, one being Early Childhood. The Early Childhood component is divided into four sections Access, Quality, Investment, and Governance. What I admire most about UNESCO’s website is the organizational manner in which the site connects you to policy briefs that are reflective of the current issues directly related to their core objective. For an example issues and challenges directly related to ACESS are addressed as the mission, and the website offers additional links to policy briefs that explain what is taking place within government and decisions that are being made in regards to policies regarding the issues Access for children.
Three main issues I discovered
1. Were Access to quality Childcare
2. Sustainable quality programs for all children despite economic status.
3. The challenge of balancing Governing Bodies.
The materials that were available were dated. Many of them produced in 2002-2007. The issues that were presented however are relevant to our current studies. The methods in which they choose to face challenges are unique and quite enlightening.
