The KidScore is both an engagement tool and a metric for evaluating the child-friendliness of urban places. It was made by kids and experts to help create happier and healthier urban places for kids. In 2019, Maximum City conducted a pilot of the KidScore in nine communities for the City of Toronto’s Children’s Services. The goal was to engage kids in assessing the child-friendliness of nine diverse locations using the KidScore, and produce actionable data for improving child-friendliness at the neighbourhood and city-wide level. In total, 248 kids ages 5-13, their teachers, program staff, parents, City staff and a variety of researchers and experts all contributed to the 2019 KidScore Pilot Program. The project was recognized by IAP2’s Core Value Award for Diversity and Inclusion.
