15-Minute Neighborhoods

In September, we explored young people's conceptions of and desires for 15-minute neighborhoods.  In a 15-minute neighborhood, people can access their basic needs (parks, food, etc.) within 15 minutes of walking, biking, or transit. We worked with children in Whittier International Elementary School's English Language Learners class, an after school program at the Manhattan public housing site, and at Casey Middle School. 

Literature:
  • Growing Up Boulder's Summary Report (see right)
  • Child in the City Blog:  Young People's Perspectives on "15 Minute Neighborhoods"​ 
  • BikeLife magazine's article on 15-Minute Neighborhoods featuring Growing Up Boulder here.
  • Growing Up Boulder's Detailed Site Reports: ​
casey middle school report
whittier elementary school report
ysi manhattan report
final project report
*Growing Up Boulder (GUB) is a child-friendly city initiative and partnership between the City of Boulder, Boulder Valley School District, and University of Colorado's Community Engagement Design and Research (CEDaR) Center.  Our programs have been including young people in city decision-making for more than 10 years.
