The Ontario Reggio Association is in ongoing dialogue with educators in Reggio Emilia Italy who created and continue to create an approach to early education that challenges us to engage in critical reflection together about our foundations and beliefs about children, teaching, learning, democracy, rights, and citizenship that form a context for our policies and practices in this time, in this place. This is a project of courage and hope that is founded on a system of relationships and a context of dialogue that will contribute to living respectfully on this land with others.
