7: Engaging Children & Young People in Planning

In this episode, we will look at how to engage children and young people in planning. This is the perfect place to start if you are looking to engage with children and young people on the NPF4 (Draft), or on an Open Place Plan or Play Sufficiency Assessment.To explore this, our Learning and Development Officer Jenny Lester catches up with Dr. Jenny Wood from a Place in Childhood. Jenny is a trained town planner who completed a PhD on children’s human rights and the Scottish town planning system. She now works to enable young citizens to participate meaningfully in improving the environments and services which affect them.
