An Invitation to Join PECERA 2027
A Once-in-a-Lifetime International Event for Early Childhood Educators!
Dear Fellow Teacher, Daycare Worker, Student, and Educator,
Warmest greetings from the Philippine Research Association for Early Childhood Education (PRAECE)!
Do you teach or care for young children ages 0 to 8 years old? Are you currently studying education, or did you recently graduate? This special message is for you!
From July 9 to 11, 2027, the global spotlight on early childhood education comes to the Philippines for the 2027 Pacific Early Childhood Education Research Association (PECERA) International Conference at National University (NU) Clark, Pampanga.
This conference rotates annually among Asia-Pacific countries such as Japan, China, Australia, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Korea, Hong Kong, and New Zealand. However, it is very rarely hosted here in the Philippines—coming to our country only once every 8 to 10 years (most recently in Manila in 2009 and in Cebu in 2017). You don't need to travel abroad to learn from the best in the world; world-class experts, researchers, and fellow teachers are coming right here to our doorstep.
Why You Should Be There
Learn World-Class Teaching Tips: Discover practical classroom methods for child development, play, health, safety, and inclusive teaching that you can use right away.
Present Your Own Work: Showcase the amazing research and teaching practices you are doing in your classroom or community!
Win the Young Scholar Award: Graduate students or fresh graduates who join as PECERA members can compete for the Young Scholar Award for emerging researchers!
Get Published Globally: Outstanding research papers presented at the conference will have the chance to be published in the international Asia-Pacific Journal of Research in Early Childhood Education.
Visit Model Schools: Get an exclusive, hands-on peek inside progressive early learning centers during our School Visit Tour.
