Abstract
This paper reports some insights garnered from a recent research project in Aotearoa (New Zealand) which explored possibilities for enacting ecological sustainability within early childhood education. The project was entitled: Titiro whakamuri, hoki whakamua. We are the future, the present and the past: caring for self, others and the environment in early years’ teaching and learning . The central platform for the study, which involved ten early childhood centres throughout the country, was a parallel philosophical approach of western theorising around an ethic of care, and Māori conceptualisations of inter-relatedness.
