About SARAECE
Who are we?
The South African Research Association for Early Childhood Education (SARAECE) strives to be a leading voice for the advancement of the Early Childhood Education (ECE) field, focused on children from birth to nine years. SARAECE is committed to being an inclusive, collective, and critical voice for ECE with the intention to advance the quality of early childhood development, care, education, and research in South Africa. The Association serves as a platform for promoting, producing, and sharing knowledge among the ECE community, and as a catalyst for early childhood research (ECR). The association aims to attract academics, researchers, teacher trainers, NPOs, students, educators, professionals, government institutions, policymakers, and leaders who strive to establish and advance ECE as a critical field in South Africa. SARAECE membership houses the leading voices in ECE across all sectors and its leadership consists of current and future experts in the field.
What we do
The Association actively promotes the advancement of the ECE field, including the theories, conceptual ideas, educational practices, policies, curricula, subjects, contexts, and issues in early childhood development, care, learning, and education. Since the ECE field is dynamic and rapidly evolving, the Association actively encourages the exploration of new paradigms, research methodologies, pedagogies, and concepts as well as their application to local contexts, whilst preserving and promoting the
rich tradition of African early childhood thought.
