The program places children and pedestrians at the center, striving to make streets safer, healthier, and more inclusive by going beyond motor vehicle-focused designs. It enhances municipal capacities through educational and workshop activities, and uses a phased design approach to make participation, budgeting, and implementation processes more effective.
