I have
yet to get a response from my emails to the contacts at the UNICEF-Argentina. I
am still interested in researching the country of Argentina and hope to get a
response before the end of the course. For the assignment this week I chose to
research Harvard's Center on Developing Children. I found their website to have
a lot of interesting information. I researched the Global Children's Initiative
and found that they do a lot of work for children throughout the world.
I found out that the Global Children's Initiative does a lot of work in the Early Childhood field and also other areas such as health care and disease prevention. I found out they have a lot of videos on their website that has a wealth of knowledge. This organization also partners with the UNICEF in some of their work. I found out they are working with UNICEF in Zambia to help children with their developmental skills. They are also working with China to help assess the mental health needs of the children their and helping to provide services. Another project they are working on is in Chile to help improve the early learning programs for the children there. They have many other projects going on in other countries such as Canada, Sierra Leone, and Brazil to name a few.
I think this website is a great website to explore to learn more about their goals and the work they are doing to enhance the lives of children and families around the world. There was a link to subscribe to newsletters from them and I signed up to receive updates from them. They offer information on trainings, activities to get students involved, and information on the different projects they have going on around the world. I am looking forward to learning more about this organization and the work they are doing around the world.
