In this episode, we start the conversation by understanding what do we mean by child-friendly cities. We further explore what kind of development need to be considered as children centric and what is its process in brownfield and greenfield projects. Additionally, how can more open spaces be developed for physical and mental development as well as make sure that they have physical and psychological safety.
