EDITORS COMMENTS
Freedom and joy in the streets of Nairobi! This vibrant photo captures a group of youths skateboarding at Shangilia skatepark, a haven for young thrill-seekers in the heart of Kenya's capital city. Built by NGO Skate-Aid in 2013, this outdoor oasis has become a weekly gathering spot for over 100 children from the surrounding area. Despite limited resources, these young skaters make do with shared pads, helmets, and boards, their laughter and excitement infectious as they carve up the concrete terrain.
The image is a testament to the power of community and creativity in bringing people together. For these kids, skateboarding is more than just a hobby - it's an escape from daily life's challenges and an opportunity to express themselves freely. As they soar through loops and tricks, their faces radiate pure happiness.
This snapshot also highlights the importance of accessible recreational spaces like Shangilia skatepark. By providing such facilities, organizations like Skate-Aid empower young people to develop new skills, build confidence, and foster meaningful connections with one another.
In this moment captured by photographer Fredrik Lerneryd for Agence France-Presse (AFP), we're reminded that even amidst urban chaos lies hidden gems where youth can thrive.
