Kéfir was a libre/free tech feminist co-op for activists, human right defenders, journalists, civil society organizations, collectives, artists from 2014 to 2020. Kéfir's purpose was to help build safe and free (as in freedom) spaces on the internet, to create together digital neighborhoods where we can trust eachother, express and operate/trigger without fear (ง︡’-‘︠)ง
In this project, I was in charge of:
Web design: responsive multilingual static site with non-javascript version.
Workshops & accompaniment: 1:1 accompaniment, consultancy and capacity building with activist organizations, collectives and projects.
Co-founder and executive coordinator: from 2014 to 2020, I co-led the workers cooperative and was in charge of project coordination.
At the core of Kéfir's site are it's values and purpose: to (re)world with organizations, collectives and activist projects more sustainable, safe and pleasureable spaces online. The decision of putting a full screen illustration conveys this mission.
This landscape (the world of the Kéfir community) is zoomeable to create an immersive sensation and a feeling of fascination and discovery as this is how approach tech learning and re-appropriation. Through the icons on the left you could navigate the site intuitively.
Kéfir's sites shut down in 2020, along with the co-op and collective.
