National and International Contributors

Our special thanks to the researchers and service providers who play an active role in the dissemination of knowledge through articles in the Encyclopedia on Early Childhood Development, (see table of content) developing literature reviews on ECD or participating in knowledge dissemination in different forums and communities. For example, a number of Canadian and international experts who contributed to the Encyclopedia have been called upon to make keynote speeches and presentations in the SKC-ECD conferences. Their involvement is part and parcel of the Strategic Knowledge Cluster’s strategy to ensure wide dissemination of high quality ECD knowledge.

Students are also actively involved in knowledge exchange activities.
