Activist-in-Residence

Resources

The Activist-in-Residence (AiR) programme encourages mutual learning and collaboration between activists, students, and researchers to enhance public-oriented scholarship and community engagement around the consequences of racism and racialisation.

Our residency holders bring a history and an interest in feminist and racial justice activism and organising, action research, working with communities, educators, policy makers or students.

Silvia Sánchez Barahona and Sonia Cardona created a thematic repository of booklets exploring the many forms of violence experienced by Indigenous women in El Salvador, Colombia, and Ecuador. This collection sheds light on the physical, social, cultural, political, and economic exclusion faced by Indigenous women, and aims to improve life opportunities, strengthen communities, and advance more just societies.
