2024 Survey of Social Skateboarding Projects Worldwide - by Skateistan x Goodpush

Take part in the new-and-improved annual survey of "skateboarding for good"! Since 2018, Skateistan has been running and publishing an annual Survey of Social Skateboarding Projects Worldwide – tracking the aims, activities, trends, and progress of skateboarding for social change on the global level.  

In this year’s survey, we’ve added a new optional section at the end to collect shared participant impact data for the very first time, based on the new Goodpush “Collective Theory of Change”.

This survey is confidential – your name and organization will never be attached with your answers publicly without your permission. Your answers to Question 2, however, may be included on the Map of Social Skate Projects Worldwide. There are no wrong answers, so please answer the statements as truthfully as possible.

The combined results of the survey will be released in an PDF report, providing insightful data to demonstrate the reach and influence of skateboarding projects around the world. Once it's ready, we'll send you the results and relevant follow-up news. Questions? Contact us at goodpush@skateistan.org   

Important notes: 

  • If you don’t have the information to answer some of the questions, you can leave those questions blank. Please just answer as many as you can.
  • We have included questions asking about staff and participant demographics to collect data on the current diversity and inclusion within social skating. If you don't wish to provide this information you do not have to.
  • Once you submit your survey answers, you will receive an automatic email copy of your submission, and you will be able to edit your answers right up until the survey deadline. 

Thanks for your time!

Thank you for completing the first part of the Social Skateboarding Survey! 

If you have surveyed your participants in 2024, we would really appreciate it if you can also fill out the 2nd section below! It's very short 😊

If that's not possible, no problem – you can just scroll down and submit your survey now. 
SECTION 2: Measuring our Collective Impact – Participant Feedback (Optional)


As mentioned above, this section was added for the first time this year, in order to begin collecting shared data to support the new Goodpush Collective Impact Framework for social skateboarding, developed by 40 organizations worldwide in 2024.

To answer these, you’ll need to have done a recent participant survey about your activities, based on a set of six key questions / indicators. If you haven’t run a participant survey yet, we’ve prepared a short participant survey template that any social skate project can use and adapt (download it here!).

If you have already done your own participant survey, you may still be able to answer some of the questions below since they cover common benefits that social skateboarding projects are aiming to provide to their participants (ie. feeling safe, learning new skills, etc…). 

Please answer as many as you can. You don’t need to answer all of these if you don’t have the data yet. If you need a bit more time to get these answers, you'll be able to edit your survey submission later on via a link that will automatically be emailed to you (until the survey deadline of February 23rd). 

2.1) FUN: What % of your participants have reported having a fun/positive experience during your program/activities?
2.2) SAFE SPACES: What % of your participants have reported that they feel safe in your programs?
2.3) CONFIDENCE: What % of your participants have reported an increase in confidence / self-esteem since joining your programs?
2.4) SKILLS: What % of your participants have reported that they have learnt useful new skills in your programs?
2.5) FRIENDSHIP: What % of your participants have reported having more friendships as a result of joining your programs?
2.6) HEALTH: What % of your participants have reported that they are more likely to continue skateboarding and/or doing sports in the future as a result of participating in your activities?
2.7) Which of the four themes below does your project/organization focus on directly? (select all that apply)
