To create a supportive educational pathway for toddlers from disadvantaged backgrounds, the training standards for early years caregivers must be improved. Limmat Foundation´s project partner, Carvajal Foundation, is developing a modular continuing professional development programme on its e-learning platform. Around 900 day-care mothers as well professional nursery teachers are enhancing their skills in early years education and care. They are gaining qualifications in nutrition, leadership, empowerment, and cultural and family history. They are practicing collaboration with families, local authorities and colleagues. The project is launching in Valle del Cauca, Chocó and Risaralda.
