PILAglobal provides innovative education for children and families impacted by displacement and poverty worldwide.In January of 2018, PILAglobal launched the Nest: a global constellation of innovative and engaging play-based education spaces for young children. Now on three continents, the Nest provides some of the world's most vulnerable children with invaluable educational, social, and play-based experiences that cultivate a sense of stability, security, and agency. The Nest offers early practice for democratic life where responsibility and freedom are continually tested and balanced. Drawing from a strong constructivist pedagogy, the Nest gives children the freedom to explore, negotiate, collaborate, and cultivate their passions. The opportunity to be in a safe learning environment has the potential to change the course of a child's life.The backbone of the Nest is our people. All of our Nests (Nest Congo and Nest Zimbabwe excluded) rely on two types of volunteers –  International Nesters and Local Nesters, all of whom are trained by PILA in trauma-informed practices and pedagogy.To learn more about being an International Nester, please visit our website at https://www.pilaglobal.org/what-is-a-nest
