EMBRACE
Empowering Teachers in Building of Resilient Ambiance for Early Childhood Education

The project “Empowering Teachers in Building of Resilient Ambiance for Early Childhood Education" (EMBRACE) proposes the implementation of a well-structured set of measures focused on some of the most important aspects of early childhood education and care (ECEC).

It aims to ensure quality education and care for the youngest members of our society, as well as a healthy and stimulating environment that supports the holistic development of children, preparing them for future academic success and overall well-being.

The key OBJECTIVE of the EMBRACE project is to make a significant contribution to the development of Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) targeting children up to 3 years of age.

The project provides a holistic and focused approach addressing the professional competencies of ECEC staff (teachers, medical and nursery staff, assistants, etc.), developing training materials, and updating the ECEC curriculum. It also aims to raise awareness among key stakeholders, including parents, about the importance of high-quality early childhood education.
