We foster inclusive, sustainable, and creative environments, where people of all ages and abilities share the right to play and be active citizens. The heart of our work is in participatory projects, including ephemeral and enduring creations. From vibrant play spaces to interactive art and design workshops, products and installations. Our initiatives embrace people of all ages, backgrounds, classes, abilities and their surrounding environments. We cultivate spaces, experiences, and objects that resonate with all. Our Vision is striving towards a society where cultural diversity is embraced, and all children feel valued, represented, and included in the cultural landscape. Our Mission at the Association is dedicated to promoting Child Culture Design, intergenerational play, inclusiveness, and advocacy for children's rights and culture. Our Main Goal is to work towards building a society where children feel confident to express themselves creatively, playfully engage with peers and adults, and where their thoughts and opinions are valued and taken seriously. Additionally, our main focus is to diversify the cultural scene and practice, making culture more accessible and inclusive for underrepresented communities. Underrepresented communities include: • Children: who, in general, are underrepresented in the cultural field in many places. • People of diverse socio-economic backgrounds. • People from diverse cultural backgrounds. • BIPOC: Black, Indigenous, People of Color. • People with diverse needs or the need for special care or assistance.
