Here is our text that will be used in the 2022 report
The Early Childhood Voices 2022 Conference (ECV2022) was a multidisciplinary international conference held over five days by the Early Childhood Interdisciplinary Research Group. This was the second bi-annual conference to share research about innovative methods, theories and partnerships with children, families and practitioners. The conference is held entirely online and asynchronously and is free for presenters and attendees, drawing on Charles Sturt’s motto “for the public good”. Researchers and post-graduate students were invited to submit abstracts to share their work on innovations to improve the lives of children, families and practitioners during early childhood (generally birth-8 years) or within the early childhood sector. Children were also invited to contribute to draw their story of ‘talking’ that was hosted in an Online Gallery and five yarning circles were held for synchronous conversations. After peer review, ECV2022 accepted six keynote presentations and 99 oral presentations from 25 countries, all aligned with relevant Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Online Gallery showcased 191 children’s drawings and around 80 participants connected in the Yarning Circles to talk about topics like families, communication, children’s rights and the SDGs. ECV2022 overall participation included 1,956 registrations from 72 countries, 6,431 website views from 1,358 users, and over 3,500 YouTube views of the presentations including 243 hours of viewing. ECV2022 achieved their aim to support social justice during early childhood and within the early childhood sector across the world.
