La collaboration intersectorielle en soutien aux pratiques éducatives inclusives, qu’en pensent les milieux de garde ?

Abstract

Collaboration is considered to be a key element of inclusive early childhood practices. To ensure effective collaboration, it is important to provide facilitating conditions as teams often encounter many challenges. The purpose is to describe intersectoral collaborative experiences from the perspective of childcare centres. One hundred and fifty-four childcare educators and 94 supervisors responded to an online survey. The results show that collaboration with partners from institutions or organizations to support the inclusion of young children is perceived positively. Despite the challenges, it is seen as helpful, particularly in terms of joint intervention planning.
