Abstract: In late 1999 [the author] spent some time working alongside educators, project directors and leaders and directors and coordinators of projects and programmes in Nicaragua and Venezuela, many of these projects and programmes are supported by the Foundation. Our work was about the practicalities of ensuring that young children encounter the right participative environments in which they can express themselves readily, knowing that they will be listened to. Specifically, we tried out a wide and varied range of strategies and approaches for everyday use with young children, in 17 working sessions in 10 preschools and centres. This article is a record of that work.
