On ACEI, there is a section for all newletters and information that are free and available to view. The newsletter that caught my attention was entitled, “Promoting Good Childhood in Kathmandu. This newsletter was in regards to ACEI members and supporters exploring early childhood development in Napal. While there, they held mini summit which was to gain knowledge about what's happening in the world in the area of ECD.... It is a reflection on the condition of ECD in Nepal and provides an opportunity for participants to learn together and hear the voices of people from grassroots level to policymakers” (acei.org, 2015).
