Fwd: GenderIT call for proposals - CNs as infrastructures of resistance

by Michael J. Oghia

FYI ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Mallory Knodel <mallory(a)mayfirst.org> Date: Tue, Aug 3, 2021, 6:34 PM Subject: [gaia] Fwd: [Feministinternet] GenderIT call for proposals - CNs as infrastructures of resistance To: <gaia(a)irtf.org> Begin forwarded message: *From:* Mariana Fossatti <mariana(a)apcwomen.org> *Date:* 3 August 2021 at 12:12:03 GMT-4 *To:* feministinternet(a)lists.apcwomen.org *Subject:* *[Feministinternet] GenderIT call for proposals - CNs as infrastructures of resistance* *Reply-To:* feministinternet(a)lists.apcwomen.org Dear friends, GenderIT is looking for content proposals for the next Community Networks edition in partnership with LocNet project. See the call bellow. Warmly, Mariana Infrastructures of Resistance: Community Networks Hacking Global Crisis When certain government or market actions and services were unable to meet the pressing needs of a pandemic and lock downs that, as a result, spiraled out of control, community networks* (CNs) demonstrated that they were more than techno solutions to communication. Every location of these community-rooted autonomous sites of communication and knowledge became its own power house of resistance against the risks and inequalities that the pandemic has exacerbated. In these times where most governments scrambled and stumbled to take life-saving, effective and empathetic steps towards providing reliable and immediate health and education services while in complete shut down, communities stepped in to care for themselves and their neighbors. The spectrum of CNs activities covered a wide range of life saving and dignifying actions and services through providing communication, health information, facilitating telemedicine applications, setting up education services, expanding internet access and reach, to preventing and tending to online and offline gender based violence. CNs proved that an infrastructure is only as robust as its more caring of its communal nodes. In this second year of living in times of unequal global health crisis, we invite you to submit your works in this special issue of GenderIT.org:* Infrastructures of Resistance: Community Networks Hacking Global Crisis* and to share with us how intersectional approaches in CNs have been transforming these realities by embodying infrastructures of resistance and bringing hope to their communities. Share with us your stories of hope, beauty, education, as well as your strategies that supported you to overcome local challenges and keeping humanity connected. *About **submissions* GenderIT.org carry blogs, podcasts, videos, essays, interviews and webcomics on internet policy and cultures from a feminist and intersectional perspective, privileging voices and expressions from the Global South. Those who are interested can send abstracts and/or ideas for: - Writings (2000 – 2500 words) - Videos (maximum of 8 – 10 mins) - Photo essays (maximum of 3 photos) - Comics or illustrations (maximum of 3 – 4 page/panel) - Audio recordings/podcasts (maximum of 10 - 15 mins) Please see some tips and style for writings here: *http://writers.wiki.apc.org/index.php/How_to_write_for_GenderIT.org* <http://writers.wiki.apc.org/index.php/How_to_write_for_GenderIT.org> You can work on your own, collaborate with others or we can matchmake you (for example a writer and an illustrator). All work selected will be compensated by The Association for Progressive Communication (APC). Send your ideas to: *genderit(a)apcwomen.org <genderit(a)apcwomen.org>* with subject “CN Infrastructures of Resistance edition” We will be glad to read your ideas and give you feedback and guidelines for the writing process. You can choose to publish under your name or a pseudonym. We can't ensure that all proposals will be published, because that depends on our limited budget. The deadline for submitting your ideas is *August 20*. **About Community Networks (CN)* We are aware that definitions of community networks can vary a lot depending on the context in which they are implemented and the socio-technical aspects they mobilize. Here we understand community networks as the community, the land and the digital technologies that are governed by communities and that enable the work of communities who are designing, articulating, building, maintaining and sustaining their communication and knowledge infrastructures. i.e. community networks involves hybrid models of communication networks such as digital technology, infrastructures that facilitate a community's governance and access to the internet and/or community radios that enable local knowledge, archival work, solidarity building, land defense, economic sovereignty, and other enablers of human rights. ______________________________________________

DC3 Outcome in the French Telecoms Regulator Annual Report!

by Luca Belli

Dear all, Just a quick message to let you know that the French Telecoms Regulator (ARCEP) has published its report on the State of the Internet, with a two-page section dedicated to the findings of the joint DCNN-DC3 outcome report on The Value of Internet Openness in Times of Crises (one of the IGF 2020 outputs). The section on “The Value of Internet Openness in Times of Crisis: Net Neutrality, Community Networks and Digital Self-determination” is at page 16-17of the ARCEP report. It is the first time an ARCEP official document explicitly refers to Community Networks, while also emphasising their potential for (network/digital) self-determination! https://en.arcep.fr/uploads/tx_gspublication/report-state-internet-2021-edi… The book on The Value of Internet Openness in Times of Crises is available here https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/filedepot_download/6114/2375 All the best Luca [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_direito_rio.jpg] Luca Belli, PhD Professor | FGV Law Schoool Coordinator | Center for Technology & Society [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_tel.jpg]+55 21 3799 5763 t@1lucabelli<https://twitter.com/1lucabelli> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_direito_rio_map.j… de Botafogo, 190 13º andar Botafogo - Rio de Janeiro, RJ - CEP: 22250-900 [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_ass_email.jpg]luc…<mailto:luca.belli@fgv.br> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_ass_url.jpg]CTS-F… direitorio.fgv.br/cts<https://direitorio.fgv.br/cts> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_ass_url.jpg]cyber… www.cyberbrics.info<http://www.cyberbrics.info/> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_ass_url.jpg]CPDP LatAm www.cpdp.lat<http://www.CPDP.lat> CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE This message, as well as any attached document, may contain personal data and information that is confidential and privileged and is intended only for the use of the addressee named above.

Re: [DC3] New report: Sustainable access

I am sorry that you had to risk yourself in order for me to avoid the risk to myself. I wish you had not done that onto yourself. The policy is more important to me than the paper, as I described in my second paragraph on my previous email. What I wished for is that the publisher made a pdf available for everyone without the need to risk privacy, freedom and security to all. Thank you for your good intentions, though. > Regarding your last paragraph, that's really a question for A4AI and > not myself. But I have written extensively about it, including in the > 2017 DC3 report and a sustainability magazine article, and I'm working > on another piece that will hopefully come out this summer looking at > those same questions. By skimming the document, I can note that it is much more broad than just proposing electrical grid coverage. I will study it later in more detail.

New report: Sustainable access

by Michael J. Oghia

Hi everyone, I want to bring your attention to a new report launched by the Alliance for Affordable Internet (A4AI). It focuses on sustainable access – a topic I began writing about in 2017 thanks to Luca inviting me to contribute to the DC3 report :-) Needless to say, it's a topic dear to my heart. https://a4ai.org/research/sustainable-access-report/ The report analyses how governments embed climate issues into their broadband policies, looks at the consequences of inaction, and suggests policy recommendations towards a greener internet. Best, -Michael

WSIS HLTF session 3

by Amali De Silva - Mitchell

There was an ask ( please see very interesting transcript from precious email on WSIS 2021 Forum session 3 bridging digital divide) to connect with whatever available tech with speed rather than wait for the best or newest solution, for covid 19 has made economies dependent on ICTs. In the west with land line phones there is 3 way calling ...wonder if there is technology fix to take this to more callers say 10 callers connecting. The bandwidth to enable zoom education is not available to all, but land line phones are more common in rural areas. Also dial up internet is still an important option and content should be made avaliable for these technologies. I grew up through dial up and know it can be used effectively for some purposes ...
