Affrica Taylor: Following and Narrating Children’s Common World Relations

This event was hosted by the ECPN and ECEBC in partnership with ECE Articulation Committee, Capilano University, Western University, and joined by the Vancouver Reggio Association (VRA) and the Ontario Reggio Association (ORA).

The video clips offered here highlight provocations posed by Affrica Taylor in an effort to foster dialogue and enact collective, ethical-political, inclusive and socially-just perspectives of pedagogical documentation/pedagogical narrations linked to the Canadian early childhood curriculum frameworks.

In this clip, Affrica Taylor asks, “What happens to pedagogical practice, documentation and narration when you shift the focus from following the child to following children’s Common World relations?”
