ABOUT US

EDUCHILD stands for Education for the Upbringing of Children. A non-profit organization formed by parents to help fellow parents in the delicate task of rearing a family.

Since 1976, EDUCHILD has assisted parents and educators to appreciate the nuances of family life.

EDUCHILD is a founding member of the FONDATION INTERNATIONALE DE LA FAMILLE (I.D.F.) based in Zurich, Switzerland. I.D.F. is a worldwide effort to support the family as the natural setting for the education of children and counts on parent groups like EDUCHILD from some thirty countries in the five continents to organize family orientation programs and promote a continuous exchange of experiences in the field of family education. 

EDUCHILD is also a member of INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION FOR FAMILY DEVELOPMENT (IFFD) based in Madrid, Spain.

EDUCHILD lends you a guiding hand, by being catalyst to parents who would learn and benefit from one another’s experiences in child-rearing.

EDUCHILD conducts researches, workshops, seminars, forums, conferences and similar activities where parents, students, educators and other professionals can acquire valid principles, techniques, attitudes and values on family life and child upbringing. EDUCHILD is founded on the principle that the parents are the primary educators of their children. It is the parents who have to teach their children values, good habits or virtues, moral principles to make them productive members of society and responsible citizens of the country.

 

EDUCHILD VISION

WE SEE a society of God-loving, prayerful, marvelous and happy families where:

  • • THE HOME is a haven of love and security, where the children are loved for who they are, the place the children most love to be and to which they love to bring their friends;

  • • THE PARENTS are both stewards and role models who realize that they are privileged to play a role in God’s creation, competently and joyfully nurturing

  • • THE CHILDREN are imbued with and live Christian Values and Virtues as they develop towards  loving, responsible and productive adults, keenly aware of their partnership with God in perfecting our temporal world.
