Meetup Descriptions

Designing and Maintaining Global South Spaces and Collaborations for Holding Platforms Accountable

In this session, groups and individuals working in the Global South will discuss how to collaborate together to hold platforms accountable for their human rights harms violations. Key elements of the discussion will include:

1) how do we design participatory and democratic spaces for collaboration and

2) how can we learn from previous experiences and better sustain such spaces. The discussion will feed into the Global South Platform Accountability Collaboration, an ongoing initiative aimed at bringing together groups working in Africa, Latin America, and Asia to hold platforms accountable.

Cyber FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) meetup

Come join us in a discussion to debunk cybersecurity / digital security myths and focus on security that is effective and usable. We will talk about simple and trauma-informed security approaches to help reduce security paralysis, nihilism, and circumvention.

IT Service Providers for Nonprofits & Human Rights Organizations

A meet-up for anyone who provides IT services to nonprofits/human rights organizations to discuss best practices! Please join if you provide IT services including helpdesk services; IT onboarding/offboarding; equipment procurement and repair; managed cybersecurity; or any other IT services.

Keep calm and put it on the blockchain? Decentralized storage tradeoffs for radical archiving

This session explores issues around decentralization as a solution for the mobile storing of sensitive data. We wish to briefly map the landscape of Web3 storage technologies and then open a discussion around the affordances and threats of various decentralized storage technologies. How might the application of decentralized storage technologies be advantageous or harmful to users and communities working towards human rights defense?

Feminist Tech Play Session: Approaches & Tools in Building Decentralised Community Platforms

What have been your experiences in building and hosting platforms for community building and organising? There is a plethora of tools and options, e.g. ActivityPub, Matrix, XMTP, Discourse, Scuttlebutt, good ol' mailing list, but they all come with their in/conveniences and affordances. Come share your experiences, tools, approaches and dreams in building decentralised community platforms!

Intro to a network disruption enumeration system (WIP)

An exploration of a censorship and network disruption enumeration system. The objective of this initiative is to unite individuals such as Internet censorship researchers, network engineers, policy regulators, practitioners, activists, netizens, and other stakeholders.

If you would like to help or get involved, join us to learn more.

Silencing voices - Are non-disclosure and non-disparagement clauses enforceable?

Companies around the world are employing tactics that strangle employee voices to force secrecy about bad behavior. But the ability to speak out is essential to the fight to ensure oversight and regulation of tech companies who are mis-using NDAs, created to protect trade secrets, and silencing victims and witnesses of corporate wrongdoing. US federal law - following California's Silence No More Act - has started to chisel away at this problem by excluding workplace harassment from these clauses.

This is a Call for Collaboration: Whistleblower Aid is working to launch a campaign to educate workers on the actual threat these agreements represent so we can hold these powerful companies accountable to their actions - while keeping workers safe.

The shutdown game

Players use their wits and abilities to circumvent internet shutdowns and restore connectivity to affected areas. They build encrypted communication networks, establish mesh networks, and use decentralized technologies to ensure communication channels remain open. Meanwhile, they avoid government surveillance and keep their digital activism covert.

As players immerse themselves in the game, they gain insights into technical infrastructure concepts and circumvention tools. The game and the interaction among participants also educates players about the role of technology in promoting freedom of speech and expression, encouraging them to be vigilant defenders of an open internet in the real world.

Pilates for Physical, Emotional and Digital Resilience

Pilates is a popular practice to strengthen our bodies' core muscles for improved flexibility, full-body coordination and strength. A trauma-informed approach to Pilates employs a holistic lens and a flexible teaching framework to create space for individual and group healing, address the physical manifestations of trauma, and build physical and emotional resilience. After more than 10 years working to combat online gender-based violence, burned out, and unable to manage the personal impact of work in this fraught field, Jen turned to Pilates to build physical strength, and found a community that helped bolster her physical and emotional well-being. She's thrilled to share this resource with Feira participants as a way of contributing to and building our community, and to add to our shared toolkit for self and community care. The sessions are open to participants of all fitness levels. Exercises will be done standing, and on floor mats, and require a moderate level of mobility. Pilates is not safe for anyone with advanced Osteoporosis, or who has recently (less than 3 months) given birth. If you have any other health issues that might impact your Pilates practice, and you feel comfortable doing so, please inform the organizers/instructor when you sign up.

This session is RSVP only due to space limitations

CiviCERT Members Meetup

CiviCERT is a network of Computer Emergency Response Teams (CERTs), Rapid Response teams, and independent Internet Content and Service Providers who help civil society prevent and address digital security issues. This private session will allow CiviCERT members to meet in person, discuss network issues and develop opportunities for further in-network collaboration.

Reunion de COSIC

COSIC es una red de organizaciones de seguridad digital en América, el objetivo de esta sesión será reunirnos en privado para discutir temas de organización de la red e intercambio de conocimientos y experiencias en nuestros respectivos países.

From Rapid Response to Sustainable Protection: Responding to Digital Threats Through Funding

The increasingly hostile scenario of digital threats and attacks on human rights defenders makes the existence of rapid response mechanisms and long-term digital security capacity-building core resources for civil society and grassroots organisations. Join us to learn how to access digital protection funds that respond to your needs.

Civic Spaces in the Global Majority

This meet-up is a follow-up to previous closed meetings DRF has facilitated with civil society and HRDs from the global majority to share challenges they face in terms of due to state-backed harassment, attacks, surveillance and onerous registration which has made it nearly impossible to work in certain countries and contexts. A preliminary meeting was conducted at RightsCon 2023 with civil society from across the Global Majority and donor organisations to discuss challenges and needs. This follow-up meet-up will seek to include more actors and work towards developing robust strategies for tackling these issues.

Disinfo f*ck up - Open Mic session

In 2021, my team and I collaborated with a range of national and international media to expose a harmful propagandist responsible for hundreds of arrests in Myanmar. Did he lose sleep over the reporting? Not exactly. He embraced the notoriety and, if anything, only became worse. His goal was to be known and feared and we had just fed right into his KPIs. |Does this sound familiar? Do you have your own stories of disinformation interventions gone wrong? Come swap war stories and talk through the unique ways that efforts to name, shame, debunk, or otherwise undermine disinformation actors can at times backfire.

Digital Identity Meetup

Digital Identity systems are a global issue that affects many countries around the world. Because of the multilateral nature of these systems being deployed often by US and European companies in other world regions, the worldbank pushing for their adoption and the EU being on track to rolling out a fully harmonised system, it's urgent activists coordinate. This session is for sharing experiences with digital identity systems in your country, working towards holding actors accountable and establishing a goal for our community in terms of risk and safeguards.

Mobile Device Farm in China

Later this year, GreatFire is planning to launch a new project, "Mobile Device Farm in China", which will set up mobile testbeds in China to directly run tests for mobile circumvention software as well as measure mobile network censorship of the Great Firewall (GFW). We have a small group of seven trusted partner organizations (Psiphon, Lantern, Tor, Snowflake, Guardian Project, OONI, and University of Maryland) who will be given access to the testbeds and share findings together. We'd like to organize a private meetup with these partners to share the previous challenges and knowledge with the censorship circumvention technology in China, and discuss the future strategies to defeat the GFW.

Media Security Meetup

A meetup of people that work in Media Security. Do you work as a safety and security person at a media organization? Want to share tips and tricks with other media security folks? Network!

Media Security Meetup for Journalist.

A meetup of people for journalist to do Q&A with various media security professionals.

Sharing of experiences in suing digital companies

Over the past few years, we've gathered evidence and organized legal action to try to change some of the more exploitative business models. I'll talk about the PornHub and Glovo (food delivery) cases.Some efforts were complex. But they worked. Others have been painful and full of pitfalls. In this meetup, I'd like to share the lessons I've learned. I hope others can use the few legal tools we have to challenge surveillance capitalism.

Tech whistleblowers on the front line

Stunning disclosures from Tech whistleblowers have led to monumental breakthroughs for researchers, journalists and policy makers. Their bravery continues to drive transparency and accountability for powerful companies whose leadership decisions impact countless lives around the world. We will answer the burning questions about how to become a whistleblower, safely and lawfully, and how tech whistleblowers are changing the state of play, for all of us.

This is a skills sharing meetup for anyone who is interested in:

- the path of a whistleblower (before, during, and after)

- resources and support availabl

- the impact of tech whistleblowers around the world

Cat lovers’ corner

We all have cats, don't we? It's time to share your cat's photo.

Where have you been / what’s your next destination

Chats and info sharing on your travel plan before and after Feira.

Verifiably Portugal: Disinformation Fighting Photo Walk

Let's get together to discuss and practice using verifiable evidence photo capture apps (ProofMode, Tella, others?) in a fun, safe environment at the Feira. Topics include usability, how to share and verify with chain-of-custody, privacy concerns, and physical and digital risks. Here is an example of a similar activity we organized at the DWebCamp

Seeding a climate justice and digital rights community

Interested in the nexus of climate justice and digital rights? We have spent the last years slowly growing a network of funders and practitioners who work in this intersection (calling it the Green Screen Coalition), and we are keen to include more voices and perspectives and learn from each other. We are in the process of designing a small grants fund to catalyse and uplift the work happening in this intersection.

Mapping out collaboration and info sharing for anti-censorship work.

Effective work against censorship and disinformation requires the collaboration of many different parties, with some working closely together, while others are only loosely involved.  The Internet Freedom community is ripe for more structured and formalized approaches to sharing data, developing countermeasures, and tracking how the adversaries' activities are organized.  We will discuss the feasibility and the create a roadmap for establishing an anti-censorship and anti-disinformation Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) ecosystem.

Advancing SAFETAG as a framework for the next generation of organizational security practitioners

At this meetup, organizational security practitioners, members of the SAFETAG community, and digital security trainers are invited to convene to discuss concrete actions to advance SAFETAG as a framework for the next generation of organizational security practitioners. Together we will identify opportunities to revive community contributions, discuss priority areas for changes and updates, and look at broader questions about clarifying, sharpening, and developing the framework. During the meetup attendees will also review existing contribution, discussion, and localization mechanisms.

Harassment reporting: Identifying opportunities for more effective collective power

Reports from PEN America, Internews, and others have recently outlined the difficulties our communities face when we report harassment to social media platforms. In this collaborative workshop, we will work to identify "pain points" in the harassment reporting process that we may be able to address collectively. We will go through a broad overview of the PEN and Internews reports. Then we will go through a "map" of all stakeholders in the harassment reporting process, starting with the moment someone gets harassed, continuing through helplines and social media reporting channels, and tracing these through to legal cases, technical analyses and reports that our community develops. We will specifically focus on how to work together to identify patterns in attacks, and other aspects that are making reporting difficult. 
As part of her work as Dan Kaminsky Fellow at HUMAN Security, Gus Andrews has been on a "listening tour" of the digital human rights community, recording difficulties in our process of helping those under attack online.

Digital Infrastructure for a Transfeminist World: How to Set up a Feminist Server with a Domestic Connection

We believe in technological autonomy, in our ability to build the Internet we want to inhabit. In this meetup, we want to present "How to set up a feminist server with a domestic connection", a fanzine that will guide restless feminists in setting up a web server to host their static webpages.

Web Accessibility

Awareness, basic concepts, benefits, legislation, best practices, how to start?

Sharing between anti-censorship tools builders

We would like to invite other people working on building anti-censorship tools for a circle to share and build collaboration.

Shaping the Tor advocates program

We are starting to organize a "Tor advocates program" and we want to host a circle for people who train others on Tor to learn about this idea and give us feedback on it.

Sharing lesson on usability research / user needs

We made big changes at Tor to have the user as the center of everything we do. In 2017 we started to implement usability research as the key director for our decisions on development and organization strategy. We would like to share about what we learned during this process and how it has been beneficial to us.

Experience of censored users

Members of Tor's Anti-Censorship team will be hosting a circle for users to come and share their experience using our circumvention tools so we can learn what is working and how to improve what is not working.

How to contribute to the Tor project

Tor's welcoming circle! Come meet Tor people and learn more about the project and how you can contribute to it.

NoScript conversation

NoScript is a critical piece of privacy online that ever user interacts with. At this circle the creator of NoScript will be sharing information about the project's status and future plans. We would like to invite you to join the conversation to share your feedback or ask questions about NoScript and its integration in the Tor Browser.

Lingua Café Chats: digital rights impressions on tech and language inclusion

What is a language inclusive world? How can digital technologies materialise it? What is the role of the digital rights community?

In this workshop participants will share their experiences, projects and ideas around language inclusion and the digital rights community.

Conversations would include topics such as linguistic diversity and digital platforms, automation and the role of translation communities, and language barriers for digital rights communities.

HUMAN Security	Sharing information about digital attacks: Turning pain into collective power	Many in our community find it frustrating and difficult to get platforms to act on our reports of online social harms like harassment, election manipulation, disinformation, and hate speech. We also find it challenging to share information about digital attacks like phishing, malware, and account takeovers. This year, through the Dan Kaminsky Fellowship at HUMAN Security, Gus is exploring how the digital human rights community can more effectively share information about attacks, to demonstrate patterns, document abuses, and even stop attackers from harming us. Do you have: analysis tools or data sharing techniques that are working well for your organization? data about attacks you'd like to compare to others'? questions about how we can make this sharing easier? deep frustration with MISP/platforms/help lines/mailing lists/technology generally (you know Gus likes to complain about usability :D)? ideas about what we could do better? Stop by this booth to chat with Gus and other members of the community about this topic!

JAAKLAC iniciativa	Critical Digital Education for All	CDE for all is a collaborative multimedia campaign raising and amplifying the perspectives, research and resources from Latin American digital rights organisations. Why is education important? Which are the gaps and advances in digital education? How can children’s rights support in comprehensive digital agendas? Who can help to amplify overlooked approaches and worldviews on digital education? Digital agendas have privileged an education _with_ digital technologies, relegating decoding its implications to the neutralised views of fields such as science and technology. The CDE campaign showcases the educational and advocacy efforts from Latin America to address this deficit and fosters a global conversation on similar endeavours to materialise change. Let’s Do It Together!
