ANTI-DO-TO X Ha'ramba Skatepark Project in Gaza

A new skate park serves as a meeting point for local youth, an epicentre to break-down barriers, with a newfound freedom

Gaza Freestyle is an international project born in Milan (Italy) in 2014 with the aim of helping the population from the Gaza Strip by using street culture to promote positive messages in a land that's facing everyday conflicts since years. ANTI-DO-TO is a newborn activist brand that push change through action, investing half of its profits in social projects and planet care.

How these two realities are connected? The ANTI-DO-TO and Gaza Freestyle teams met up in the famous skate spot of Milano Centrale, during a DIY repair operation promoted by the local skaters involved in the Gaza mission. Right after that the two realities teamed up with the goal to complete the creation of a new skate area named "Ha'ramba" on the Port of Gaza City, in order to realize a place where inclusion, happiness and joy could face the problems of a territory plagued by inhumane living conditions.

The team of Gaza Freestyle gave life to similar projects yet, letting more than 100 boy and girls have the opportunity to meet, exchange ideas and inspire each other in a peaceful environments, where also a whole community of artist and musicians has grown up. ANTI-DO-TO is providing a big support in the Ha'ramba project and also made a dedicated t-shirt line to celebrate this collaboration, using graphics tributes to Gaza skatepark's locals photographers and obviously a sustainable production process.
