Presentation transcript:

“A Child Friendly City is a local system of good governance committed to fulfilling children's rights.” “It is a city where the voices, needs, priorities and rights of children are an integral part of public policies, programmes and decisions.” “It is, as a result, a city that is fit for all”.

In Child Friendly Cities children can: Influence decisions about their community/city. Express their opinions on the community/city they want. Participate in family, cultural, community/city and social life. Be safe and protected from exploitation, violence and abuse. Meet friends and have places and spaces to play and enjoy themselves. Have green spaces for plants and animals. Live in a clean, unpolluted environment. Be an equal citizen, with access to every service regardless of their ethnic origin, religion, income, gender or ability.

 First Local Board to register as a ‘Child Friendly City’ (January 2015)  Working towards accreditation by UNICEF  Needs to walk the talk to succeed

Think Big projects in 3 local primary schools:  Freemans Bay School  children are building a website for children to raise awareness around child rights, governance, events and opportunities for children.  Richmond Road School  The Colour Project: children have created a mural and two colourful climbing walls in response to a school wide survey.  Parnell District School  children surveyed 188 children about the Draft Newmarket Laneways Plan

Other child-friendly consultations: o Freyberg Square (with Massey University and City Centre Design Team) o Dog Access review – 120 submissions o Pt Resolution Development Plan o Grey Lynn Park Development Plan
