Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community: Internationally
The first website I open is http://www.unicef.org, and on their first page, I found out they have a promise to provide fair chances to every child, especially the children from poor families. Equity in education in China is one of my dream and desire to explore and achieve, the belief of UNICEF makes me feel comfortable to be with them. I like to work in their education department and help the children from poor families to have a fair start like others. I checked their job openings, and I like this one http://www.unicef.cn/en/career/4949.html. I have the love for children, the passion to achieve equity, and have a background of working in international education for so many years, I believe I am capable in this work
The second one I choose is http://www.savethechildren.org/site/c.8rKIXMGIpI4E/b.6146405/k.C7E9/About_Us.htm. "Save the Children invests in childhood – every day, in times of crisis and for our future. In the United States and around the world, we give children a healthy start, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. By transforming children's lives now, we change the course of their future and ours. "
A healthy start of the child is every parent's dream and for the children, with a healthy start, they can be better prepared for their own life and future. Children are fragile, they need help and protection. They don't have a job opening yet, but I love to be part of it as a individual sponsor.
The third one is http://www.unesco.org/new/en/unesco/about-us/who-we-are/introducing-unesco/
"UNESCO works to create the conditions for dialogue among civilizations, cultures and peoples, based upon respect for commonly shared values. It is through this dialogue that the world can achieve global visions of sustainable development encompassing observance of human rights, mutual respect and the alleviation of poverty, all of which are at the heart of UNESCO’S mission and activities.".
Right now in China, sustainable development is a very hot words because people are aware a lot about the air and water pollutions, people leave their home to work in the big cities for making a living etc. How to keep a sustainable society is a vital questions nowadays for every Chinese. And education definitely is a primal way to share the concepts and educate our young generation to be responsible for it.
I may choose to be a program coordinator responsible for education filed to achieve the goal.

Xia,
ReplyDeleteYou chose really interesting organizations. UNICEF is an organization that truly has the best at heart for the families that they help all around the world. Like you I would like to be part of an international organization as well, I just don't know how I woudl do it with three children. But it is my dream to travel the world and help low income families link to the services they need. Very good research!
Xia,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading you post. The organizations you chose are very interesting. UNICEF is one that I am very interested in also. As I mentioned in my blog for these organizations I am only interested in being a member and making donations. I would like to learn more about them however, I really do not have an interest to work for them. Being able to help children get a healthy start and be prepared for their lives as children and beyond is a goal that I have also. Thanks for sharing.
