The Story of Reggio Emilia In Asia

The Story of Reggio Emilia In Asia

In a whirlwind of excitement and challenges, EtonHouse representatives, inspired during a study group to Reggio Emilia in October 2009, embarked on a mission to organise the first Reggio Children conference in Asia. Facing tight timelines and immense logistical hurdles, the collaboration led to a groundbreaking event in March 2010, drawing 470 delegates from 11 Asia Pacific countries. The conference, featuring international educators like Amelia Gambetti and Emanuela Vercalli, sparked deep thinking and reflection. What unfolded after this historic gathering—including the formation of REACH in 2013 and its impact on innovation, thought leadership, professional development and deep commitment to the rights of every child—makes for a compelling journey of connection, collaboration, and professional growth. REACH celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2023 and has organised many conferences, study groups, webinars and professional learning opportunities over the years, serving as a beacon for like-minded early childhood professionals committed to the Reggio Emilia Approach and way of being.
