As part of the exhibit "The Infiltrators" at Artport gallery, Ghana ThinkTank worked with Maayan Sheleff and Yael Ravid to set up think tanks of African refugees in Israel. We collected problems from Israelis living in the notoriously neglected neighborhood of south Tel Aviv, which were sent to think tanks of Sudanese and Eritrean asylum seekers also living in south Tel Aviv. The Africans solved the Israelis' problems, and vice-versa.
We then worked with the think tanks, community members and local organizations to implement their solutions.
The project was created in collaboration with Maayan Sheleff. Community organizer- Yael Ravid. The vertical gardens are in collaboration with "Urban Environment Nursery - onya city." The Neve Shaanan tour is in collaboration with Nisan Almog.
