World Conference 2011
Playing into the Future - surviving and thriving
4 - 7 July 2011, Cardiff City Hall, Wales
How do we create a future where playing is valued and where every country and neighbourhood upholds every child's right to time, freedom and a safe enough environment for playing in their own way?
The 18th conference of the International Play Association offers four days to share evidence, experience and examples of good practice with colleagues from around the world.
Conference themes:
Play – Individual and Social
• Play and its contribution to adaptation, healing, resilience, risk-management, social wellbeing, emotional literacy and learning
• Play deprivation, bias and extremes – the effects on children of having no opportunity to play, or only being able to play in a very limited or extreme way and how these effects might be overcome
• Play and identity• Play and the playwork approach
• Play and the reflective practitioner
Play – Environment and Space - indoor, outdoor, virtual, urban or rural
• The environment, space and time within which playing occurs – is promoted or inhibited – whether planned by adults or not
• Providing environments where children and young people can create and manage risk and uncertainty
• The influence physical and emotional environments have on play
Play – Society and Culture
• Play and policy making
• Freedom to play and the structures of society and communities – social divisions, material divisions, mobility and inequality
• Play cultures and folklore
• Playing, ethnography and children’s geographies
• War, conflict and play
