Many of the core challenges of urban childhoods relate to transport, mobility and access. Hear from Amy Child at the #LiveableCities Conference tomorrow discuss how a child getting around a city independently is a strong indicator of how a city is performing.

William Barak was an influential spokesman for Aboriginal social justice and an important informant on Wurundjeri cultural lore. @ptv_official time to spell his name right?
