Majority World Track at Surveillance Studies Conference 2024

Surveillance in the Majority World Research Network aims to expand the scope of surveillance studies to include non-Northern / Western discourses and practices. It is a place for exchange, collaboration, and activism against the undemocratic use of surveillance technologies. Surveillance in the Majority World Research Network facilitates global exchange across groups and institutions active in surveillance-related issues to collaborate, build support networks, disseminate the outcomes of their projects, and make resources and knowledge publicly accessible. These documented ideas, reports, and research outcomes contribute to knowledge production and policymaking but also aim to create a safe and supporting space for researchers and activists who work in politically and socially precarious environments.
