Establishing Professional Contracts

In trying to contract two professional educators outside of the United States was hard for me. I sent out two letters to brasilia@unicef.org  and cario@unicef.org informing them of the school I attend and the interest in meeting two professionals outside of the United States. My goal is to grow and understand the issues and trends explored in another country besides the United States. After waiting two full days, I decided to take the alternate assignment in part one. In selecting one of the early childhood settings, I chose to read each episode of the individual. I decided to choose someone who interest intrigued me, who shared similar values and the steps he or she took to become an advocate. I chose Delfena Mitchell program, Liberty Children's home, because I am interested in the way she is able to receive children and what precautions she takes in order to break the ice with children and nurture them. I also chose TJ Skalski program, called the Mother Earth's Children's Charter School (MECCS) because she relates to my story in so many ways, however I never left the United States. Her passion and ambition to provide and build children's dreams similar to what I want to do.

My question and concerns for this assignment is "What is the most challenging thing that happened thus far in regards to getting information from early childhood professionals in other countries you have? Can we choose an early childhood professionals from the World Forum episodes as a contact to get to them and their passion of work for our assignments?
