In conversation with Brian Burkhart, Carolina Sánchez-de Jaegher and Rolando Vázquez, we discuss Indigenous environmentalism as an anticolonial force, and the encounter between Indigenous knowledge systems and decolonial thought.

SPUI25 explores the state of FemTech software and asks whether we should be using these apps, or not.

The Tech Coup

Over the past decades, under the cover of ‘innovation’, technology companies have successfully resisted regulation and have even begun to seize power from governments themselves.

Spyware companies sell digital intelligence tools to anyone who can afford them. This new reality—where unregulated technology has become a forceful instrument for autocrats around the world—is terrible news for democracies and citizens.
