Abstract

Abstract:The Child-Friendly Cities Initiative was developed nearly 30 years ago to recognize cities for their work on improving the lives of urban children based on the rights of the child. There is considerable international interest in this initiative even today. However, many planners and built environment professionals feel the initiative has not done much to provide public spaces and independent mobility for children. This paper engages with such criticism and investigates the drivers and nature of public space interventions in recognized child-friendly cities in 24 countries and demonstrates how the initiative has promoted public spaces for children through policies, planning, and programming efforts.

儿童友好城市倡议如何促进儿童公共空间的发展？

摘要："儿童友好城市倡议 "是近 30 年前提出的，旨在表彰那些在儿童权利的基础上努力改善城市儿童生活的城市。时至今日，这一倡议在国际上仍受到广泛关注。然而，许多规划师和建筑环境专业人士认为，该倡议在为儿童提供公共空间和独立行动能力方面做得并不多。本文对这些批评意见进行了回应，并调查了 24 个国家中公认的儿童友好城市的公共空间干预措施的驱动因素和性质，并展示了该倡议如何通过政策、规划和计划工作来促进儿童公共空间的发展。
