Pedagogical Mastery: We define the “NPGI Standard”—a rigorous framework for how adults facilitate and support the child’s natural drive for discovery. By constantly refining our approach, we ensure that every interaction is purposeful, respectful, and impactful.
Applied Innovation: The world is changing, and so is the landscape of childhood. The Center serves as an R&D hub, testing new environments, materials, and engagement strategies to stay at the forefront of the sector.
Global Advocacy: We act as a bridge between frontline practice and high-level policy. By sharing our findings with partners and stakeholders, we advocate for the essential value of self-directed time in a child’s development.
