Actions for environmental justice from autonomous and community-based technological infrastructures
Actions for environmental justice from autonomous and community-based technological infrastructures Sursiendo, along with May First Movement Technology, will research action strategies to embed environmental sustainability into autonomous internet communications infrastructure projects. Emerging from the desire of small and medium-sized providers of technological infrastructure serving social groups to recognize their socio-environmental challenges, the project will produce a report with actions and recommendations.
Latin American Decolonial Feminist Coalition: Advancing Digital & Environmental Justice
This initiative aims to publicly launch and boost the the Latin American Decolonial Feminist Coalition, a collaborative effort among Latin American organizations, activists, and researchers committed to advancing digital and environmental justice. Established in Costa Rica in June, the coalition brings together five regional organizations. The coalition will produce a web repository spotlighting regional insights at the nexus of digital and climate justice, bolstering awareness and action in these critical areas.
Data-bodies-territories
The project “Data-Bodies-Territories” focuses on the intertwining of datafication processes with extractive processes in the territory of Abya Yala. Building upon the category of body-territory, derived from the activism of women and land defenders in Abya Yala, we aim to analyze the complex relationships between body-territories and the body-Earth territory (Cabnal, 2010), within the context of datafication processes. Through the testimonies of various communities, ranging from work in data labeling to the use of facial recognition at borders, as well as resistance against the construction of data centers, we will explore how these communities confront the forces of extractive capitalism associated with the digital economy.
