This symposium will highlight contemporary research, theory and practice to inform early childhood pedagogies that move beyond a “cultural competence” approach to explore the importance of critical cultural integrity in early childhood pedagogy.

 

Presenters include members of the International Collaboration for Culturally Inclusive Early Childhood Pedagogies (CIECP).  The purpose of this symposium is to stimulate critical reflection and dialogue to explore possibilities for informing future policy and practice. During this symposium we will explore:

 

  • How do theoretical perspectives inform understandings about pedagogy, practice, learning and children’s play?
  • How can we promote cultural integrity in early childhood pedagogies?
  • What pedagogies and practices honour an image of all children as capable citizens who are valued for their contributions to their communities?
