Understanding the risk of children’s injuries from playgrounds in the Republic of Moldova
This study is the first in Moldova to define the playgrounds in Chisinau, identify several risk factors, and highlight areas where children's health is seriously at risk. The majority of parents knew that the playground's state had a significant effect on their kids' health. By acknowledging and addressing these challenges, we may improve safety procedures, promote inclusion, and foster an environment that promotes growth, flexibility, and imaginative play.
