Project "Playable City of Griesheim" brings over 1000 primary school children to participate - scientific evaluation planned
How do children move through the city - and how can their daily school path be more secure, more beautiful and child -friendly? school route mapping as part of the “Visible City of Griesheim” should provide answers to these questions . Around 1200 children of the first to fourth classes from all four primary schools with mark their individual way to school .
With simple symbols - arrows for the direction of running , crosses at road crossings and circles at the place of residence - the children record their way to school from the respective school premises. The aim of the project is to get a better understanding of the daily route leadership of children and derive concrete improvements for the design of public space.

The mapping is accompanied and evaluated by Professor Bernhard Meyer and four students from the Evangelical University of Darmstadt . The project is fully financed by donations .
