‘The “Documentation of Innovative Pedagogical Approaches and Tools in Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE)” project has involved collaboration among the UNESCO Asia and Pacific Regional Bureau for Education, the UNICEF East Asia and Pacific Regional Office (EAPRO) and Regional Office for South Asia (ROSA), the Asia-Pacific Regional Network for Early Childhood (ARNEC) and the World Organization for Early Childhood Education (OMEP). This initiative is aimed at contributing to improved equity and quality of ECCE provision in Asia and the Pacific through two lines of action: a) increasing the political commitment of Asia-Pacific countries to improving the equity and quality of ECCE and b) providing early childhood teachers and teacher educators in Asia and the Pacific with access to tools, approaches and information that support effective and innovative pedagogies in teaching and learning.’ [Introduction]
