"Creating Child Friendly Cities" seeks to assess the extent to
which the physical and social make up of Western cities
accommodates and nourishes the needs of children and youth.
Examining the areas of planning, design, social policy, transport,
housing, it outlines strengths and deficiencies in the processes
that govern urban development and change from the perspective of
children and youth.
The Book examines a diverse range of issues including children's
view of the city and why this is unique; how to work with kids to
create better cities; the consequences of Children's health and how
this is shaped by the make up of cities; the "obesity epidemic": is
it caused by cities?; the journey to school, and children's
transport needs generally and many more.
In the final chapter the editors look at development from a child
usage perspective' and put together an agenda for action, in order
to provide cities with places for children to play.
