Panel Discussion: Designing for Childhood in the City

Join us for an engaging panel discussion that dives into the heart of what makes a city great for children! On October 13, 2026, at the Edinburgh Futures Institute, we’ll explore the voices of Edinburgh's kids and how their experiences can reshape our city. Led by Dr. Louise Hill from the Children’s Parliament, our panel features experts like Sue Palmer, Tim Gill, and Shirley Young, who bring insights from child development, urban design, and inclusion. Together, we’ll tackle essential questions: What do children need to thrive? What kind of spaces foster their growth and play? This is your chance to think differently about Edinburgh and discover how we can create a city that truly supports every child. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to be part of the conversation! 🎉
