Week 7



In reading and scrolling the website, I saw a lot of interesting things. The things I focused on were those having to do children and the Access, Equity, Quality, Investment, Coordination and Integration. I found so much information about early childhood education and how coordination and integration is a worldwide problem. I learned that Countries often promote alternative services for poor children with limited or no access to mainstream early childhood services which can be cost-effective and pedagogically innovative, but often raise concerns about sustainability and quality. Also children who are privileged get benefits from investments by the stated but those children who are poor do not receive as much attention from the government. I really am not shocked to read that those of us who are not as privileges as other are not the governments concern.
            I also look the tab that discussed coordination and integration. I learned that it is very difficult to obtain Cross-sectoral coordination.
 The other tab I looked at was the social and human science tab. This tab had all types of events on it one that discussed International Youth Day that is held on August 12th. This day was a day filled with a lot of activities for the young because the young account for almost 30% of internal migrants but not much is known about the struggle or opportunities that are affected by migration. This day is set aside to try and learn more about the struggles or migrant youth.  
I really had not given much thought to migrant youth or the issues that they face. This organization is a very good one and Is involved in a lot of things that affect us as Americans.

    I also browsed this website and found that it has a lot of very interesting information. I think that Youth Day is a very good thing it seems that it is a day that is set aside to inform others and that is a good thing. Good Post

  2. Hi Laketha,
    I think that your point about whether or not you can afford education determines the type of education a child will receive. This is a problem in certain places in America, so I can only imagine the quality if care in other parts of the world where education is not important at all. I can only imagine what it is like to be a child who doesn't have any chance of not receiving an education if any type.
