Informations générales
We will document and share autonomous alternatives for well-being in communities throughout Mesoamerica. The mobile laboratory will travel to indigenous communities, barrios, and farming villages in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama, seeking to demonstrate through the voices of those directly affected how autonomous alternatives are cultivated in the face of territorial displacement. We will chronicle and foster the use of independent media and eco-technologies as tools that strengthen communal well-being.
This work is being realized by Collectives in Action, an open network of collectives, organizations, and individuals from Mexico, Germany, the United States, and other parts of the world, who apply and promote the appropriation of these tools.
The caravan for the well-being of Mesoamerican peoples in resistance is being planned in collaboration with communities from Mexico to Panama and will head south from Mexico during the first trimester of 2015.
Caractéristiques principales
We will promote the application of socially appropriate technologies, or eco-technologies: alternative and non-contaminating tools adapted to the well-being and self-determination of each community. These tools include pedal-powered machines, solar energy, ecological toilets, and systems for the collection and recycling of water, amongst others.
We will collectively produce community-based radio and television, asking questions and listening to the voices of the peoples of Mesoamerica. We also will broadcast the bottom-up alternatives that communities generate in the face of the plundering of natural resources which takes place in the name of human development.
All of these materials will be given to the communities we work with, as well as shared with free use and distribution on our website: http://caravanaparaelbuenviviren.wordpress.com.
Pourquoi est-ce important
We seek to generate consciousness by broadcasting the voices of communities from Mexico to Panama. We will share skills and tools with the aim of strengthening communities that are struggling to preserve indigenous ways of being and protect natural resources as a common good.
Objectifs de la campagne de crowdfunding
The goal of this campaign is to raise the minimum funds necessary for the purchase of a used vehicle, which will bring us to the communities we are collaborating with.
If we reach our maximum goal, we will transform the vehicle into a mobile laboratory, equipped with a radio cabin and a studio for community-based video and television. The laboratory will also serve as a demonstrative center of eco-technologies, equipped with tools to realize workshops and supply energy.
Our team is enriched by the experience of collectives, organizations, and individuals from Mexico, Germany, and the United States, amongst other countries, who are dedicated to the grassroots use of independent media and socially appropriate technologies, and who form Collectives in Action for the Well-being of Mesoamerican Peoples in Resistance:
CACITA: A collective in Oaxaca, Mexico, with more than 10 years of experience developing eco-technologies such as pedal-powered machines.
transgalaxia e.V.: A collective in Northeast Germany that promotes exchange between social movements in Latin America and Germany.
Los Tejemedios: An national articulation of individuals and collectives that produce independent media in Mexico.
The Beehive Collective: The Beehive Collective: A U.S. arts and graphics collective whose “Mesoamérica Resiste” project illustrates stories of resistance, resilience, and solidarity from Mexico to Colombia.
