The educational project of Reggio Emilia is an on going pedagogical research project between teachers, parents, children and the community. It is a research project about teaching and learning and the relationship between them. This research has led to a particular way of thinking about children, education and learning.

This is not research as an activity conducted by outside specialists, but as part of everyday practice that can be conducted by everyone: the researching child, the researching teacher, the researching parent.
