Vision

As a representative body, ECA should drive the pursuit of quality, access, inclusiveness,and transparency (QAIT) across the early childhood domain. To begin acheiving this objective, ECA will have to work together with children, parents, service providers, international bodies,and government to agree upon a common definition and framework for QAIT at the macro-level. All of this leading to a brighter future for our children and as a by-product, a brighter future for our society.
