Proposal to create an international Decade for Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) 
The World Organisation for Early Childhood (OMEP), at its World Assembly in  2015, adopted the recommendation to  propose an  UN international Decade for Early Childhood Care and Education.
The Croatian government sent this  proposal to UNESCO in July 2015
The assistant director general for Education, M. Qian  TANG, supports this proposal, stating  in his letter to OMEP that "UNESCO Share OMEP' s vision of Early Childhood Care and Education as a right and the  Foundation for lifelong learning  and sustainable and peaceful societies“.
The CCNGO that met May 23-24, 2016, as its First Education 2030 meeting support this recommendation and should alerte the Education 2030 steering Committee about this proposal.
The official UN procedure is that this proposal  must be  submitted to the UN General Assembly in  September 2016.
