Livno Receives Inclusive Playground and Intersection Accessibility Upgrades for People with Mobility Impairments
17 February 2025
The works on the construction of a new inclusive children’s playground and the adaptation of 74 intersections for people with mobility impairments in Livno have been completed, with the support of the United Nations Secretary-General’s Peacebuilding Fund (PBF).
These works were carried out in cooperation with the Livno City Administration, marking a significant step in creating a more accessible and inclusive urban environment in the city.
The newly constructed inclusive playground, located near the PUŽ Association’s premises, is the first of its kind in Livno. It provides children with developmental disabilities a safe and accessible space to play and socialize with their peers. Equipped with specialized features, the playground ensures equal participation for all children, promoting their development through play.
In addition to the playground, 74 intersections in Livno have been adapted. By removing architectural barriers and installing tactile markings, mobility and safety for people with mobility impairments have been significantly improved, enabling them greater independence and easier access to essential public services and institutions.
These infrastructure interventions are part of the "Sustaining Peace and Social Cohesion in Bosnia and Herzegovina through Enhanced Inter-municipal and Inter-entity Cooperation on Local Services (SPSC)" project, supported by the PBF and implemented by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), on behalf of the United Nations in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
