Reggio Children is an international centre for the defence and promotion of the rights and potentials of all children. It was created with the intention of valorising and safeguarding the experience of Reggio Emilia’s Municipal Infant-Toddler Centres and Preschools, known in Italy and throughout the world as the Reggio Emilia Approach®.

Reggio Children s.r.l. was founded in 1994 by the Municipality of Reggio Emilia in Italy to promote children’s right to quality education on local, national and international levels, and to organize pedagogical and cultural exchanges between Reggio Emilia’s municipal early childhood centres, and schools, teachers, academics and researchers around the world. As well as its own activities – professional development and education, exhibitions, publishing, ateliers, consulting and research – Reggio Children, in collaboration with the Municipality of Reggio Emilia, the Preschools and Infant-Toddler Centres and the Reggio Children Loris Malaguzzi Foundation, also runs the Loris Malaguzzi International Centre, in Reggio Emilia, Italy. It publishes projects and reflections on the Reggio Emilia Approach, giving voice to children’s knowledges and thoughts, with about 100 books, catalogues, audiovisuals and portfolios, which are translated in as many as 26 languages.
