Make Space for Girls campaigns for facilities and public spaces for teenage girls.
Parks, play equipment and public spaces for older children and teenagers are currently designed for the default male. It’s time to make space for girls.
What does better
look like?
We’ve created some images to get people talking about what might be found in spaces designed with girls in mind. There isn’t an “off the shelf” solution. Key to making space work for girls is talking to teenage girls, to understand their take on their local spaces, the barriers they face to enjoying these spaces and involving them in the design process.
Most councils have spent more time and money on facilities for dog waste than they have for teenage girls.
This has gone on for too long. It’s time to make space for girls.
