Cambios en "Community Safety Database and participatory processes of community regeneration"

Description:
Decidim's praxis for participatory design, processes, and methodologies invites connections and spaces to share strategic knowledges across a network of assemblies and what we have been calling \"autonomous learning spaces\" and, related \"temporary autonomous zones of knowledge production.\" As part of a larger emergent digital commons where collective knowledge production is linked to forms of civic participation, spaces including Decidim offer a way for global citizens to engage a range of issues and confront violences impacting us across networked spaces.

Community Safety Database and participatory processes of community regeneration introduces the Community Safety Database (CSDbase), an interactive dispersed horizontal digital platform to document, analyze, and counter counterinsurgency especially militarized police violence. The platform also creates a space for convivial reconstruction articulating alternative forms of justice beyond the state, locally rooted community safety, strategic moments of fierce care, coordinated strategies and practices of assembly, and documentation of state and state manufactured threats to the community. Together, the CSDbase and the convivial regeneration made possible through it illustrate new strategies of networked autonomy.

Objectives:

1. Introduce and hone a definition of a convivial tool by inviting participants to think about documentation and shared research in their own local.

2. Initiate a brief, situated collective ethnography of militarized policing and community responses across various geographies and local sites through engaging the CSDbase as a collective, convivial tool.

3. Establish a node organized around Community Safety (counter counterinsurgency lab) as part of a larger network of civic participation and participatory processes that includes and connects to Decidim.

Methodology:

The workshop will include brief introductions to make explicit who is present in the space; facilitators will situate the emergence of the CSDbase as a response to violence directed at particular communities via forms of militarized and state and state manufactured violence and share a brief demo of the CSDbase. From here, we will initiate a conversation about militarized policing and community responses as well as autonomous efforts to organize safer communities; we will then enter the Decidim space into the CSDbase graph to both document and archive the space in relation to the larger project, and establish a node to weave future connections across communities.
