Making space, and designing public spaces, for girls.
Our facilities almost exclusively cater for boys under the guise of catering for everyone. 90% of Australian girls aged 11-17 don’t get enough physical activity for good health and a lack of girl-friendly spaces is contributing to that alarming fact. Like the Matildas-in-the-making of 15 years ago, girls who want to use recreational spaces must compete with boys, or toddlers, or dogs.
