Resumen

DORATO, Elena  y  BORGOGNI, Antonio. Active cities/active children: a planning and pedagogical perspective []. Revista Convergências [online]. 2020, vol.13, n.26, pp.91-102.  Epub 30-Nov-2020. ISSN 2184-0180.  https://doi.org/10.53681/c1514225187514391s.26.38.

This contribution, written by an urban designer and an educationist, aims at (re)focusing the attention of the interdisciplinary debate on the active role of children within the public urban realm or - as we could rephrase it - on the potential influences that the city, its structure, regulations and spaces has on children intended as a vulnerable population group. In order to do so, some reflections on the relationship between “the child and the city” are presented, also supported by an original walk-to-school research conducted in the Italian city of Cassino, investigating children's active and independent mobility, and by a conceptual model based on the classification of children's physical activity as either “independent” or “non-independent”. Finally, a discussion on the pivotal role of public spaces is developed, briefly presenting some virtuous project examples.

Palabras clave : public spaces; urbanism; Active City; children; urban bodies.
