Playing for a Future

Abstract

What if we could introduce “play” for deprived children in order to create for them new opportunities, far from child labour and menial jobs, proving that there is a place for them in society? Can one imagine designing “with” children? Through understanding and learning from play, and through introducing craftsmanship, a part of our culture and society that is suffering to persist, can we create a mutual learning process for less fortunate children and artisans to adapt as a method for the development of their futures?
