Description

In our fast-changing urban world, the impacts of social and environmental change on children are often overlooked. Children and Their Urban Environment examines these impacts in detail, looking at the key activities, spaces and experiences children have, and how these can be managed to ensure that children benefit from change.

The authors highlight the importance of planners, architects and housing professionals in creating positive environments for children and involving them in the planning process. They argue that children's lives are becoming simultaneously both richer and more deprived, and that, despite apparently increasing wealth, disparities between children are increasing further. Each chapter includes international examples of good practice and policy innovations for redressing the balance in favour of child supportive environments.
