Sommario/riassunto

This book is the first of two volumes that provide an international snapshot of the contemporary state of outdoor risky play. Utilising a range of voices, it brings together perspectives from the United States of America, Australia, England, New Zealand, Singapore, Slovenia, Germany, Ireland, Finland, Turkey, Italy, Canada, and South Africa, to explore issues such as the enablers and opportunities afforded by risky outdoor play. With diminished opportunities for children to engage in free play in the great outdoors and connect with nature, there has never been a more important time to examine this topic in greater detail. By unifying voices from across the globe, this book seeks to empower each child’s right to learn and develop naturally in risky outdoor play.
