Learning life-skills through skateboarding

Concrete Jungle Foundation is an international non-profit organization that uses skateboarding as a tool to stimulate positive personal and community development for underprivileged youth around the world. They coordinate the construction of new skateparks, the provision of skateboarding and safety equipment, and the organization and implementation of locally run programs focused on life-skills and empowerment. Located on the northern coast of Peru, Trujillo is the third most populous city in the country. The 150m2 skatepark was built in 2017 by Concrete Jungle Foundation, as part of a school which would integrate skateboarding as part of their curriculum in the country.
