Children's use of green spaces during and after school hours in Brussels - VUB survey results (REPORT)

This publication corresponds to Deliverable D1.3 “Report on the analysis of children map-based survey response" from the COOLSCHOOLS project (https://coolschools.eu/), funded by the European Commission, the Spanish Research Agency (AEI), Innoviris (Brussels Capital Region), Dutch Research Council (NWO), The Research Foundation – Flanders (FWO), and Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR). 

It describes the results of two map-based surveys, conducted by researchers from the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) to better understand how schoolchildren (aged 3-12) in the Brussels-Capital Region use green spaces—such as parks, forests, and green schoolyards—both during and after school hours, with a focus on equity. These surveys, circulated online and on-site between March and November 2024, gathered insights from 418 parents and 72 school staff.
