Explore a display of young people’s ideas for playful spaces in the city, then join us for a multi-generational panel discussion.

Discussion
Urban Learners bring together diverse perspectives on designing playful spaces for all. Panellists will share insights on the power of using voice to collaborate, communicate and create, and how to ensure young people’s voices are both heard and shape their local built environment.
