Movement Creates Change
Haraka Baraka activates movement — in bodies, organisations and communities — to create more just, playful and connected futures.
We work with people, places, and communities to imagine futures rooted in movement-based exploration. From playable and skateable sculptures in public spaces, to embodied training that transforms how teams work, to international artist solidarity — our work centres freedom, imagination and collective care.
People Moving
Embodied learning for connection, creativity and collective intelligence.
We help groups shift out of habitual patterns and into new ways of thinking, collaborating and leading. Our movement-led workshops support organisations, creative teams and communities to build trust, innovate and develop shared purpose.
We help with:
Workplace wellbeing and team cohesion
Communication and leadership development
Creative thinking and innovation
Research and development
Formats
Workshops
Team Away Days
Creative Strategy Labs
Leadership programmes
Places Moving
Playable and skateable sculpture that reclaims public space for movement and connection.
We are a collective of engineers, project managers, movers and designers who work collaboratively with communities to design joyful structures for public life — spaces where play, creativity and belonging can thrive.
We help with:
Playable/skateable sculpture and spatial activation
Youth engagement through movement and design
Temporary and mobile movement installations
Community co-design and consultation
Approach
Our process is participatory and iterative, combining embodied research, spatial testing and technical design to ensure safety, delight and long-term use.
Power Moving
Embodied solidarity and creative freedom across borders.
We support artists and communities whose movement — physical or political — is restricted. We work particularly across Palestine and the Palestinian diaspora, collaborating with cultural workers to amplify stories, strengthen networks of care and protect the right to creative expression.
We work on:
Producing and supporting new creative work
Networking between artists and cultural workers in Palestine, the diaspora and with allies
Artist mobility and professional development
Skill-sharing and creative exchange initiatives
Haraka Baraka is led by Dr Dani Abulhawa
