Coding Rights

We are an organisation bringing an intersectional feminist approach to defend human rights in the development, regulation and use of technologies. We act collectively and in networks, use creativity and hacker knowledge to question the present and reimagine a future based on transfeminist and decolonial values.

Somos uma organização que traz um olhar feminista interseccional para defender os direitos humanos no desenvolvimento, regulação e uso das tecnologias. Atuamos em rede, usamos criatividade e conhecimento hacker para questionar o presente e reimaginar um futuro pautado por valores transfeministas e decoloniais.

Mission

Our mission is to expose and challenge technologies which reinforce power asymmetries, with focus on gender inequalities and its intersectionalities.

Nossa missão é expor e desafiar tecnologias que reforcem assimetrias de poder, com foco nas desigualdades de gênero e suas interseccionalidades.

Core values

Openness, transparency, diversity, equality, privacy and freedom in the access and usages of technologies and in the interaction with governance processes are at the core of the development of a people-centered network and a democratic society. Coding Rights’ projects are meant to cherish these values, empowering civil society, and particularly women from different fields across the globe, to promote a shift in the male lead environment of ICTs.

Structure

While based in Brazil, Coding Rights envisions digital technologies as global. Therefore all projects are conceived and implemented through a network. According to the expertise and goals of a particular project, different partnerships are established with different organizations and independent individuals that share similar values and goals to discuss, think, improve and act in alliance.
