Kick Start the Design Contest “Green Playground Inner City”
An interesting challenge for adolescents in Da Nang to create a green initiative for eco-friendly playground, appropriate for the urban context, especially in Da Nang city
Playing in a green and clean space as well as having chances to join outdoor activities can bring significant benefits to children’s physical, mental and social development, especially in the context of COVID-19 pandemic. In recent consultations, children and adolescents in Da Nang expressed their wishes to have more public spaces and playgrounds in the city. They also expect that child-friendly playground ideas are taken into consideration when designing playgrounds. Therefore, it is very important and necessary to listen to children’s voices for an ideal playground.
