Project Description:
|
Play@Khirkee explored the landscapes of play in Khirkee Village and its surrounding areas from a socio-spatial perspective. Using ethnographic fieldwork as the primary method, this project sought to explore how play is perceived in general by the community including children, how spaces for play are conceived, and how children play in urban space. In other words, this project was about understanding the place of play in our society, the nature of play, and the spatial experience of play in a neighbourhood where children do have licenses to play outdoors. On April 27, 2011, Delhi High Court passed a judgment that any park can be used as a playground and children should be allowed to play ball in a park. It is heartening to know that an apex court is sympathetic to children's play in urban public places in the city. But by equating play to ball games, the judgment illustrates the lack of understanding of play in the urban space of Indian cities. Cricket and its many variations are precisely what give play a bad name and drive selfish adults in RWAs to drag the issue of banning play from neighborhood parks to courts in India. Play@Khirkee was conceived to deepen our understanding of play in the Indian urban context from the perspective of influencing planning and provisions for children with the goal of enhancing social participation of children through play in urban space and city life. https://playatkhirke…
