Project Summary: The project allows us to carry on and improve the work we are doing on early childhood with an intercultural and sustainable perspective. Our activities are designed according to those perspectives but there is room for improvement as transformational change takes time and effort of professionals, organizations, the educational service, the beneficiaries and the sector. The project will allow us to evaluate and reconsider our approaches and learn about the partner's views and experiences. It is especially valuable to us that the partners come from diverse backgrounds and are based in different European countries, as it enriches the learning and working process.

To us, it is also an opportunity to improve our curricula and tools used with children 0-3 and their families in light of the methodology that will be developed in the project. Finally, it will allow us to review the EU quality framework and to make improvement proposals. The project is a good occasion to, jointly with the partners, demand changes and create transformative interventions for a better early education.
