Situated against a backdrop of multiple global pandemics―COVID-19, racial injustice and violence, inequitable resource distribution, political insurrections and unrest―this timely and critical volume argues for a divestment in white privilege and an investment in anti-racist pedagogies and practice across early childhood contexts of research, policy, and teaching and learning. Featuring established scholar-practitioners alongside emerging voices, chapters explore key issues around equitable and inclusive practices for young children, covering topics such as multilingualism and multicultural practices of immigrant communities, language varieties, and dialects across the Black diaspora, queer pedagogies, and play at the intersection of race, gender, disability, and language. Thoughtfully and compellingly written, each chapter offers an overview of the issue, the theoretical framework and critical context surrounding it and implications for practice.

Free Download Private Equity in Germany: Venture Capital for Digital Platform Start-ups
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031337077 | 190 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 5 MB
Start-ups are emerging, non-conventional enterprises that enter established markets with radically different products, displace incumbents, create new markets, and promote economic growth through innovation. Start-ups are often faced with many challenges that may threaten their survival, which can often be overcome by securing steady financial support. Start-ups are high-risk enterprises that are unattractive to conventional financiers, but absolutely suited to private equity (PE) and venture capital (VC) investors who seek rewards and are therefore willing to accept risk. The success stories of global digital platform start-ups have attracted PE investors in particular. When investing in a digital platform start-up in Germany, what criteria do PE and VC investors look for? How should entrepreneurs prepare for VC funding? What strategies should they use? The authors examine these questions in this book and provide a comprehensive analysis of the German start-up, digital platform, PE, and VC ecosystems. The book exposes entrepreneurs, investors, mergers and acquisitions experts, regulators and policy-makers to the market’s workings and pain points so that they can help create a German start-up ecosystem that is as functional as the other organized industries.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are increasingly critical constructs central to optimizing organizational functioning. While systemic approaches at the organizational level play a central role in DEI efforts, this work must start at the individual level. In this course, Dr. Nika White explains the importance of individual accountability in creating equitable and inclusive workspaces, regardless of your organizational role. She starts with the basics of this complex topic, breaking down the definitions of diversity, equity, and inclusion-three related but distinct concepts, and explains why they’re so important. She explains how you can equip yourself to accept individual accountability, including how to educate yourself and others, examine your own privilege, and own the impact of your actions. Join Nika in this course to learn more about your personal accountability in your organization’s DEI goals, and how to get more comfortable confronting frequently uncomfortable realities.
