85. EN. The City at Eye Level for Kids - Vivian Doumpa
Vivian Doumpa (Urban Planner, Geographer and Placemaker) as one of editors of the book is sharing the story about the life of this book: the background, the editors, the aim, the content and much more. While urban planners may consider children when designing parks and playgrounds, few ask how their and their parents’ needs could be better met in the design of streets and other public spaces in neighbourhoods and city centres. The City at Eye Level (CAEL), an international platform advocating for more people-centred planning in urban development, seeks through this project to highlight and focus its scope on children and their parents. The City at Eye Level for Kids project aims to leverage the CAEL platform to advance the existing state of knowledge into scientific research into creating a child-friendly public realm. It will trial local placemaking approaches in Stockholm and Thessaloniki and develop a draft, open-source policy document for other cities and city-makers to use and develop further.

Under de senaste 15 åren har fler än hundra skateparker byggts i Sverige och ännu fler lär byggas efter att skateboard blir en OS-sport 2020. Skate har många fördelar men är en extremt mansdominerad aktivitet, av Skateboardförbundets alla medlemmar är endast ca 20% kvinnliga. Många mediala och sociala intiativ har gjorts för att förändra detta, men det finns inget undersöker hur skateparker i sig kan gestaltas för att bli mer inkluderande.
