ISHK PEDULI ANAK INDONESIA
Focus area: Education
Supports quality early childhood education and development (ECED) in East Java and addresses early inequality gaps, allowing all children to develop to their fullest potential and be equipped for further schooling.
Good maternal and child health and nutrition
Parents who stimulate child learning and play at home
All boys and girls aged 3-6 enrolled in PAUD
Community awareness and support
Qualified and competent teachers and school leaders in PAUDs
A safe and nurturing environment
Studies show that under-stimulating environments can lead to inequalities in the early ages. A child who falls behind in these years may never fully bridge the gaps and catch up.
Investments in the early childhood stage, a crucial period for cognitive and psychosocial development, can have long-term impacts on a child.
Improving teacher quality was identified as an area of opportunity to strengthen Indonesia's education system.
As the world moves towards what is known as the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it is important that future generations are not left behind.
'Education 4.0' redefines learning with a focus on shaping higher cognitive capabilities by developing fine social, emotional, intellectual, physical and technological skills.
We do this through Play.
