“Child in the City” European Conference – Stuttgart, 17-18 October 2006
17-10-2006

Introduction
The Child in the City Foundation organises its third European Conference on 16, 17 and 18 October 2006 at the City Hall in Stuttgart, Germany. The purpose of this international conference is to share current thinking and disseminate good practice on space for children in urban areas. The conference seeks to identify guiding principles and practices for the realisation of child friendly cities. In order to do so, the Child in the City Foundation will bring together social scientists, policy makers, planners and practitioners to debate the issue.
Description
The challenge is to integrate the play and recreational needs of children within the planning, design and governance of the modern city, against the background of demographic changes. In achieving child friendly cities, mobility plays a big part. The conference will focus on mobility from 5 viewpoints: 
  • urban planning integrating children’s view on mobility; 
  • the design of space of children to enable them to move in the living environment; 
  • public transport; 
  • children’s participation and mobility; 
  • children’s mobility and health.
