Hosted at MLC: Public Lecture on Children's Rights

January 20th, 2026

Join the Reggio Emilia Information Exchange Australia, in collaboration with MLC Kindle, for The Jan Millikan Lecture: Towards Education Centered on Rights, a thought-provoking public lecture focused on children’s rights, safety, and wellbeing.

At MLC Kindle, we take inspiration from the globally renowned, play-based education philosophy, Reggio Emilia. In this approach, children learn through intentional play and inquiry, becoming active participants in their own learning and exploration of the world around them.

This public lecture is open to parents, educators and professionals working with children. It will explore how homes, schools, and communities can better support children’s voice, dignity, and participation.

The lecture will feature a distinguished panel of experts, including experienced educators, child safety consultants, children’s rights advocates, and a parent, each bringing a wealth of knowledge and practical insights.
