After a hugely successful launch in 2019, Real Play City Challenge is back in 2022 to help cities overcome pressing global challenges in their local communities and neighbourhoods through playful placemaking.

Whether a community or city is:

  • experiencing the effects of conflict and displacement…
  • facing the challenges of adapting to climate change…
  • or struggling to create places that cater to diverse and varied needs from the local community.

The Real Play Challenge is looking to shine a light on all the great examples around the world that inspire and show the way to a better, more resilient, playful public realm with people of all sizes and shapes at its heart.

And why do we do it? We believe that cities should provide a playful backdrop for children and communities, thereby reclaiming and integrating play into everyday life.

After all, play is an essential right that nurtures children’s happiness and wellbeing. It is proven to equip them with social and emotional skills, build their resilience and creativity, and helps them thrive.
