AeioTU is a Colombian social enterprise whose purpose is to transform communities in an innovative and sustainable way through the development of children's potential. It does this through its own pedagogical program for early childhood education, called aeioTU Educational Experience, which is inspired by the Reggio Emilia educational philosophy. Through this pedagogical program and its curriculum, children learn through play, art and research, and they are the protagonists of learning based on their own interests. In addition, this Educational Experience also has scientific evidence supported by a longitudinal study conducted by the University of the Andes and the NIEER Institute of the University of Rutgers.
 

"Our 16 years of experience have allowed us to recognize the importance of working with all the actors involved in the Early Childhood ecosystem. During this time, we have impacted the lives of more than 1,194,229 children, improved the skills and knowledge of more than 83,364 educators, influenced the parenting practices of more than 1,224,268 families and enriched the functioning of more than 5,308 educational spaces. Our Invitation is to continue working to achieve a world that conceives children as capable, free, happy, full of rights and agents of change in their communities."
