International Conference Child in the City
The 5th edition of the Child in the City Conference will be held on 27 – 29 October 2010 in the city of Florence. This international conference and trade show on child friendly cities is a joint project of the Child in the City Foundation and the European Network Child Friendly Cities (ENCFC). Both organisations aim at encouraging cities in becoming more child friendly.
This edition will further build on the ideas of former events with themes like children’s participation, space for children, children’s mobility and assessment tools. Participation and children’s rights to play are once again main themes. As far as it concerns assessment tools, UNICEF will present the results of a worldwide research project that might inspire many cities.
This year, another important theme will be included: child poverty. By doing so, Child in the City will more and more cover the whole Convention on the Rights of the Child.
