Enhancing a sense of belonging in the early years

Enhancing a sense of belonging in the early years

This issue of Early Childhood Matters invites all our readers to reflect on the theme of positive identity and a sense of belonging as this relates to young children. In so doing, we hope to contribute to the ultimate goal of the Foundation’s ‘Social inclusion and respect for diversity’ programme area: that is, ‘Children should live in more equitable societies, and in environments that model and encourage mutual respect, empathy and conflict resolution’.
