SUMMARY:Beyond Design: Building Ecosystems for Arts\, Play & Learning
DESCRIPTION:Arts\, play and learning shouldn’t be add-ons to urban development. Drawing on eight years in Govandi’s Natwar Parekh Colony\, Natasha Sharma shares how abandoned spaces were reclaimed as community-led environments for children and caregivers\, by listening\, designing with locals\, and sustaining the spaces through programming. The session shows that better childhoods mean reimagining the whole neighbourhood\, not just designing spaces for children.\n \nWhat to Expect? \n\nUse arts and play as tools for participation\nRecognise the neighbourhood as a space for childhood\nCentre children’s imaginations in design\nReimagine overlooked spaces\nSee design as an iterative and adaptive process\nWork with existing conditions through low-cost design elements\nBuild community ownership and local leadership\nSustain spaces beyond construction through deep programming\n\nThis Masterclas is designed for: \n\nEducators\, librarians and community learning facilitators\nPlayworkers and expressive arts practitioners\nParents\, caregivers and community organisers\nGrassroots organisations working with children and families\nArtists\, designers and architects working in development practice\nUrban practitioners\, planners and policymakers\nGovernment authorities and institutions responsible for urban infrastructure\n\nIt is especially useful for anyone wondering: “Am I missing some signs? Am I looking at my child in a holistic way? Am I supporting ALL children?” \n\n
