Avignon, Child-friendly city: Avignon City Hall
Establishment of a Municipal Council for Children, development of vacations for all with the operation “Un été à Avignon”, creation of the Educational City, digital plan in schools, libraries in parks and gardens, free extracurricular activities and adapted prices (nurseries, leisure centers, canteen) for families in greatest difficulty … but also more recently the greening of schoolyards, the zero plastic canteen, consistent signage and arrangements in parks and gardens designed by children… so many actions, the list of which remains non-exhaustive, which in themselves testify to the City’s desire to work for its cadets.
Through the integration of the youngest at the heart of all the approaches and all the measures in which it is committed (Terre de Jeux 2024, Terre de Culture 2025, Climate Plan and Charter of the Tree …), formulates the City today the wish to be more accessible. An ambitious action plan that responds to the commitment of the Mayor and her elected officials to imagine a different city for children: nutrition, an essential ax that the confinement of the year 2020 has highlighted; the girl-boy equality which takes a different look at the development of public spaces or even the decompartmentalization between the different times of the child, obvious for a City labeled Educational City.
For all these actions already started, those it is leading and those that it still has to imagine, the City of Avignon is happy to have found in UNICEF a committed partner with whom to re-examine the way of continuing to think. public policies.
