Abstract: Many governments and donors seem to regard Education For All (EFA) Goal No.1: ‘Expanding and improving comprehensive early childhood care and education, especially for the most vulnerable and disadvantaged children’ as more of an option than a necessity. However, this is not the case in Monduli, a district in the Arusha region of Tanzania, where Monduli Pastoralist Development Initiatives (mpdi) is working with Maasai pastoralist communities and the Monduli District Council to improve early childhood care and education as a foundation for meeting all the EFA goals.
