More than half of the world’s children are growing up in cities. Yet, children and families are often invisible to urban planners, developers, and architects when implementing policies and practices that shape the built environment.
Playful Learning Landscapes (PLL) is a culturally adaptable and sustainable approach for creating more child-friendly cities by augmenting opportunities for play, learning, and healthy development in the public realm.
On Wednesday, October 12, Brookings Bass Center for Transformative Placemaking and the Center for Universal Education, in partnership with Playful Learning Landscapes Action Network (PLLAN), will host an in-person and virtual event to examine how cities are infusing playful learning in their communities. The event will kick off with an opportunity for attendees to interact with PLL activities and will then feature panel discussions on community engagement and measuring the impact of playful learning in public spaces.
Viewers can submit questions for the speakers by emailing events@brookings.edu or tweeting to @BrookingsMetro using #PlayfulLearningLandscapes.
