Перед участниками стоит задача придумать детскую площадку для лагеря беженцев в Бангладеш, которая могла бы стать не просто местом для игры, а платформой для обучения и социализации. Миссия – обеспечить детям, которые могут чувствовать себя чужими в новом месте жительства, счастливое детство.

Recent times have witnessed a shift in humanity like never before, more than 70 million people around the world are displaced from their homes. Fleeing their countries entirely due to persecution, war or violence, almost 25.9 million of these are seeking asylum in other countries, becoming refugees.
According to the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) out of a global population of 7.2 million school-age refugee children, four million do not attend lessons of any kind. Studies show child refugees are particularly vulnerable and are five times more likely never to go to school than non-refugee children on a global level.
How do we keep children engaged and safe, while also helping them overcome traumatic experiences? How do we help them develop the skills and abilities to make sense of their surroundings? How do we work towards helping them develop their communication, problem-solving & conflict resolution skills and let them know that there will be better days?
CHALLENGE
In most circumstances, play can be invigorating, stimulating, freeing and fun. Here it is much more than a fundamental form of therapy. A dedicated play space can ensure a safe and caring environment for kids to freely express themselves through the process of play.
Develop an architectural concept creating a safe, stable happy place for children in an otherwise chaotic world. Seeing this as a two-step problem, attempt to bring in education to the children, and secondly focus on letting the children be children.
Most importantly, make play the source of happiness it should be.
