<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>The Goodpush Alliance and Drop In e.V. are very excited to announce that we will be co-hosting an event for social skateboarding projects in Berlin, Germany, on October 27-29, 2021.&nbsp;</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>This special, three-day knowledge-sharing event will bring together 20-30 founders, managers and coaches who are involved in social skateboarding projects from across Germany. The aim of this event is to create a space for social skateboarding organizations to share best practices and challenges, increase collaboration, and grow their peer support network.&nbsp;</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>This Goodpush Berlin Meet-Up will feature interactive workshops on a range of topics relevant for social skateboarding organizations, such as inclusive skateboarding, measuring impact, creating safe spaces, fundraising, and youth empowerment programs.&nbsp;</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>The venue will be the massive and amazing Berlin Skatehalle, and we plan to have BBQs, skate sessions and films between the workshops.</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>This event is open to all social skate/WCMX projects that are based in Germany (whether you are officially registered as an organization or not).
