Frequently Asked Questions
What is to be expected from this expedition?
This expedition is a hands-on masterclass in playground design using local and recycled materials. It is an opportunity to learn from the best, gain an insight into getting things done in a complex environment without making compromises. We are always actively looking for new ways to engage with communities through play, and this expedition is a way for us to prototype public playground designs, in situ, with real communites.
Why such short notice before the expedition?
These opportunites are not planned years in advance. We respond to community needs, which can be at short notice depending on the urgency and logistics of putting the expedition together.
What does my money go towards?
The majority of the money for this expedition goes directly towards building the playground itself. Secondly, as we are presenting this as a Masterclass in playground design, we aim to make this the most rewarding learning experience for you as well. The rest goes towards accomodation, meals and travel around the sites.
What experience do I need?
We do not require any specific experience in terms of playground design as such. We do require an enthusiasm for design for kids, for playground design and obviously a mild level of fitness to be able to assist to some degree with the build.
