Jobs/Roles in ECE Community: Internationally
There are several organizations I am fond of, but here are a few I would like to share:
Kids Rights - https://kidsrights.org
This organization advocates for children to have the right to speak about their concerns and encourages children to speak out for what they believe. The children are encouraged to be global changemakers and are educated on how to do so. This is a great organization because it allows children to take on leadership positions and confirms they have support.
Employment
Unfortunately, I didn't see the employment options. However, I did see how private and public organizations such as banks, lottery services, legal teams, and television networks sponsor the expenses of the organization. I would imagine that the most helpful sponsors are people who own their own business and provide bartering services. If I could imagine an organization not listed, I would think of a catering business. If I was sponsoring an event, I would provide the food and staffing for the global event.
Global Fund for Children - https://globalfundforchildren.org
I like this organization because it reminds me of planting and seed and watching it grow. This organization finds other organizations and leaders to assist with their goals of helping children. GFC then funds the initiatives of the projects and educates participants. They also take the leaders and open them to the network they have provided. This will allow other leaders to partner and develop additional creative ideas to benefit children. After the classes, the "graduates" will then find opportunities to continue to assist children. This concept allows everyone to continue growing. It is important to help but also essential for the person being helped to learn and grow.
Employment
Grants Accountant - https://globalfundforchildren.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Staff-and-Grants-Accountant.pdf
This position requires a person who has a BS. in Business or Accounting. He or she must have experience in non-profit accounting, payroll, MS Excel, and accounting software. The person must be able to work in a group or independently.
Childhood Education International - https://acei.org/about-us/
I like CEI because it helps children around the world to receive a quality education. CEI's ultimate goal is to provide quality education to children in need. They were established in 1892. They help children up to 11 years old. There are 3 programs that branch off from CEI: Innovative Exchange, Global Schools First, and Center for Education Diplomacy and Leadership. Center for Education Diplomacy and Leadership helps to solve issues such as gender equality, financing, and inclusion. Global Schools First is a program incorporating global citizenship into the curriculum. Innovative Education looks like a resource for all members to show how other people are being creative in education.
Employment
Although there is not an employment posting, I looked through the leadership team's positions. I was most interested in the communications manager position. There are no job descriptions, but I would imagine the following about the job description. Requirements- BS or BA in Business or Communications, experience in a non-profit leadership position. Ability to work with MS Office and Apple Software. Experience presenting and public speaking.
These positions allow me to see how there is a vast amount of opportunities besides being a teacher or daycare owner. I am glad to get this type of exposure.
