This series is conceived as an online public forum to facilitate critical conversations on ‘the rights space’ in precarious and often imperilled digital activist terrains of labour, health, food, policing, identification, housing rights, archiving among others. Even as the hype over the promises and perils of large-language models, increasing financialization of our lives, Digital Public Infrastructures, and e-currency engulf our zeitgeist, we wish to steer conversations away from corporation-dominated discourses to transnational activist energies across the Global South. This is a dialogue series where each conversation will see two or more activists or activism-adjacent academics (a term we populate capaciously) speaking to a particular clustering of digital rights across regional geographies of the Global South. This conversation will be moderated by an academic who has worked in an adjacent research area. Each speaker will offer historical reflections of how digital rights activist sites emerged in a particular regional site of collective struggle in the Global South.
