Reflections from the last international Programmes Manager in Morocco



It has been 2 years since the Fiers & Forts Skatepark was built at the children's home 'Centre Fiers & Forts' in Tamesloht, Morocco. In those 2 years, this beautiful skatepark project has blossomed: it has become an integral part of the operations of the Center, and the life of the village around it: more than 250 children have participated to the 650+ sessions that have taken place at the skatepark, ranging from skate sessions to educational workshops and contests.

Learn: Supporting Resilient Communities through Skateboarding



The communal aspect of skateboarding has always fascinated me. No matter where you go in the world, you'll find like-minded individuals, make new friends, and be welcomed with open arms. In our last blog, you will read how this welcoming, near-universal language of skateboarding is the starting point for CJF in working with skateboarding communities to address societal challenges within each skatepark location and beyond.

Ride: Skateboarding for Social Change



Seven years ago, Concrete Jungle Foundation (CJF) was born from a shared love for skateboarding. Without a concrete plan or established model, as well as limited resources, the organization began with two friends who had a common experience of the transformative power of skateboarding and a desire to share it with others.

Join the family.

Concrete Jungle Family (CJFamily) is our global community of supporters that share our mission to empower individuals and communities worldwide through fostering and sustaining the positive values inherent to skateboarding.
