World Forum Foundation
About Us
The mission of the World Forum Foundation is to promote an on-going global exchange of ideas on the delivery of quality services for young children in diverse settings.
Core Values
The World Forum Foundation’s core values are exemplified by the words: Children. Change. Relationships. Spirit. Differences.
All who care about the well-being of the world’s children are invited to participate. Leadership is collaborative, globally diverse, provided by a multitude of diverse volunteers and a small, dedicated staff.
The World Forum Foundation mission is accomplished through Groups
Much of the Foundation’s activities are carried out by these dedicated groups of volunteers (access the Connection Center for more information):
Working Group
Organized to focus on a specific topic (e.g. Children’s Rights) each group of globally diverse professionals coordinates focused work projects and invites others to join. This work is posted on the World Forum Foundation Connection Center. Groups meet in person during World Forum events and hold virtual meetings between gatherings.
Global Leaders for Young Children
Early childhood professionals recognized as emerging leaders receive leadership training and financial support for small, yet impactful projects they carry out in their own countries.
