Constructing a framework for early childhood teachers' cultural wellbeing

该项目旨在通过加强反种族主义取向和纳入教师队伍，提高幼儿教师的文化幸福感和归属感。该项目希望通过使用创新的跨学科方法，让布里斯班、悉尼、墨尔本和奥克兰的幼儿教师以多种方式分享他们的文化故事，在这个研究不足的领域产生新的知识。该项目的预期成果包括一个指导框架，以加强儿童早期环境中的跨文化实践，加强国际合作，并为澳大利亚幼儿的教育成果、文化理解和社会福祉带来重大好处。

This project aims to raise early childhood teachers' cultural wellbeing and belonging, by strengthening anti-racist orientations and inclusion in their teaching teams. This project expects to generate new knowledge in this under-researched area, by using innovative, interdisciplinary approaches involving early childhood teachers in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and Auckland in sharing their culture stories in multimodal ways. Expected outcomes of the project include a guiding framework to enhance intercultural practices in early childhood settings, enhanced international collaborations, and significant benefits to the educational outcomes, cultural understandings and social wellbeing of Australia’s very young children.
