Item Having a say in places to play(Routledge, 2024-07-01) Lynch, Helen; Jansens, Rianne; Prellwitz, MariaPlay is a fundamental occupation of children, and children’s right to play is recognized in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Opportunities to play are influenced by the environment, and in a child-rights-based approach, adults have an obligation to provide appropriate play spaces. Children with disabilities experience difficulties in accessing and playing in community play spaces. Therefore, their perspectives should be included in the design of these spaces. Instead, they are often excluded from consultation on playspace designs, and their participation rights are denied. Children with disabilities are thus multiply disadvantaged in exercising their rights.Item What barriers to play do children with disabilities face?(De Gruyter, 2018-10-26) Lynch, Helen; Moore, Alice; European Cooperation in Science and TechnologyItem Which playspaces are appropriate for our children?(De Gruyter, 2018-10-26) Lynch, Helen; European Cooperation in Science and Technology
