Today we launched Charles Sturt University Early Childhood Research Group website: https://earlychildhoodresearch.csu.domains
We also have a new Twitter account: @CSU_ECRG
We will be advertising the Early Childhood Voices 2020 Conference very soon!
Here is our overview:
The Early Childhood Research Group (ECRG) promotes social justice for children, families and practitioners working with the early childhood sector (generally birth-8 years). We do this by using innovative methods, theories and partnerships with children, families, practitioners and the early childhood sector to co-produce, translate and implement research, and to generate evidence-based practice and practice-based evidence. Our research emphasises sustainability, children’s rights, enhancing children’s access to, participation in and outcomes from equitable, quality early childhood programs and services, workforce sustainability, and transformation of the social, policy and organisational conditions that enable social justice. We seek opportunities to bridge gaps and promote holistic approaches between settings (early childhood education and care, schools, homes, health and disability services), and bodies (government departments, international and national organisations). We build capacity for engaging in transformative research within our group and with other researchers.
We are guided by Charles Sturt University’s ethos: Yindyamarra winhanganha "The wisdom of respectfully knowing how to live well in a world worth living in" and Charles Sturt University’s motto: "For the public good". We also align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 3, 4, 8, 10
