Abstract

Children are an important and sensitive group whose opinion and wishes should be asked about their living environment. This causes the formation of child-friendly neighborhoods that meet their needs. The reason for choosing South Poonk neighborhood was the car traffic, high density and low participation of children in the neighborhood. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to identify the ways of children's participation in order to create child-friendly neighborhoods. The research method is descriptive-analytical. The research is of an applied type and in terms of location, it is a field and documentary research. The statistical population is children under the age of 18 in South Pounak neighborhood, which includes 7291 people and about 20.5% of the population of the area. One of the methods of children's participation is to draw a picture, which children are chosen by a simple random method. Therefore, by analyzing the children's drawings, it is possible to direct the South Pounak neighborhood to be child-friendly. The research results from the examination of 50 children's drawings show that 19 categories were liked and noticed by children. Among the categories, respectively, active and passive interaction with the natural and artificial environment, as well as climatic comfort have the most attention and access to public transportation, creating special routes for cycling and walking, were less important in children's drawings. Also, the environmental dimension is ranked first with 26.45% and transportation is ranked last with 6.07% from the point of view of children. Therefore, it is possible to create child-friendly neighborhoods by involving children.
