Dear Amy,
What a very interesting project you are exposing here. We like the concept of promoting an inclusive society through the development of playgrounds accessible to every child regardless of disability.
We would like to know a bit more about the costs of such a playground. In case the Boundless Playgrounds are more costly than ordinary ones, is there financial help provided to the city to promote this kind of playgrounds? Does a project exists that aims to change the ADA norms to promote your concept?
Finally, we are curious about your Awareness and Empowerment programs. Could you give us some details about how you sensitize the population on inclusion of people with disabilities in the society?
We are looking forward to hear your answer since our project (see our entry) is also focused on inclusion. It would therefore be great if we can share ideas with you.
