Ramay, Allison

Keywords: gender, sexuality, Computer-mediated collaboration, Feminism

Abstract

This article describes how through the innovative use of an Internet platform, Ese:o, a Chilean nongovernmental organization grounded on a critical and feminist perspective, contributed the communication strategies for the Sexualities Project. This 5-year academic collaboration involved more than 30 researchers in five countries and four continents. The results include transformation of Ese:o’s research and writing methodologies into daily practices—occurring across borders and disciplines— capable of achieving two primary objectives: (1) generating a progressively self run, self-sustaining online community, owner and producer of its own discourse; and (2) making work modes visible discursively and materially (through platforms, forums, and workbooks) focused on the objectives and products of the Sexualities Project (documents, reports, papers, books, conference, and meeting organization)
