Who cares for the people who care for our children? In this episode, we meet the real heroes behind the movement: ECD practitioners—our Real Reformers—who nurture, teach, and love young children every day. Despite their essential role in building a solid foundation for young children to thrive, they remain underpaid, under-resourced, and undervalued—especially by our government. With over 1000 practitioners in our network, Real Reform for ECD is advocating for them to be recognised for the essential work they do. What will it take to ensure that those who care for our youngest generation get the support they deserve? Listen in as they share their stories, struggles, and solutions. Hit play. This is a conversation we all need to hear.

New here? Catch up on The Right to Nutrition Series where we explored the right to nutrition and the state's obligation that flows from this right, what constitutes adequate nutrition, and various implementation models that the government could use to ensure nutrition reaches every child attending an ECD programme.
In Season 2, we dive into the history of the movement, spotlight women in ECD leadership, and unpack the latest in ECD research and advocacy.
If you care about children, community, and/or justice, this is the show for you. Join us — become a Real Reformer! Join the movement here and subscribe to our newsletter here.
