Research
that Benefits Children and Families
If I had the means and the knowledge to conduct research about
any topic in the early childhood field, I would like to advocate for the way
policies are constructed and the contexts. I would want to know if all policy
makers have the best interest of young children and their families in mind when
constructing policies for the early childhood practice.
When I did research of International Childcare, I do not
believe that there are any policies or procedures for young children and their
families in some International countries. As I was reading the UNICEF newsletter this
week, it states that more than 200 Syrians, mostly civilians was killed in the
Hama Region on Friday. UNICEF has repeatedly spoken out against the violence
and the impact on the Syria’s children. There seems to be no policies in place in this
country for young children and their families, there is too much violence and
killing.

ReplyDeleteI love this topic, because the policies and how they are made affects so many families these days. All children need advocates or someone who can speak for the better of children and families. I love the UNICEF work they do for children.
HI Gloria,
ReplyDeleteon the international level, that brings another whole dimension to policies and practices. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this and bringing to light the importance of awareness of what is happening in the world's around us.
Dear Gloria,
ReplyDeletePolicies and practices is a great topic. It's a shame to know that so many children and families were killed through violence. Thanks for sharing the insights about UNICEF.
