I chose to make contacts through the Global Alliance of NAEYC. I am attempting to make contacts to the representative in Ghana, Nigeria, and Mongolia. I have not heard anything back from these particular areas and hopefully I will within the next week. I am really interested in learning more about these areas, their policies and practices in early education.
I chose to use to expand my resources using the Harlem Children's Zone. The Harlem Children's Zone takes on a community approach to addressing the needs in early childhood to include all children and the environment they are growing up in. This site offers great statistical information on the situation of children born into or stricken by poverty. These numbers largely effect minorities that need to be addressed immediately. I was interested in this resource because it attempts to give a community view on how to address the concerns of children who are growing up in poverty stricken homes.
