Poster by "como crear historias" The exhibition Playgrounds organized by the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, was the starting point. The space to meet and to exchange knowledge and experiences was created through the social networks. Two years later, the Playgrounds Group, which brings together more than 300 architects and social workers dedicated to the teaching of architecture for children, organizes in Madrid the III International Conference on Education in Architecture for Children and Youth. The aim of the Meeting set by the Playgrounds Group is to provide an overview of architectural education for children and young people through the experience of different teams dedicated to this issue in the international arena. There is a growing interest in this kind of education confirmed by the increasing number of architects devoted to it and benefited from initiatives that promote the active involvement of children in their urban environment. After a first call, the expectations have been exceeded and they've had to expand the capacity at the Reina Sofia Museum.
