Play is essential for children to thrive now and in the future, but many urban environments lack opportunities or a city-wide strategy for play. That’s why the Real Play City Challenge aims to reclaim places to play in cities for children.
We want to support, promote and share initiatives that have potential to:
- Inspire more cities, placemakers, urban planners, real-estate developers and other stakeholders to take action in safe, child-friendly and playful urban practice.
- Optimise, integrate and disseminate international knowledge and experience to strengthen safe, child-friendly and playful urban practice.
- Enhance impact by catalysing, replicating and scaling child-friendly, safe and playful initiatives in different contexts around the globe.
Using our frameworks we invite urban planners, placemakers, city decision-makers and architects to join our challenge and become one of the winners selected to attend our masterclass and scale up their ideas.
