Valencia Drive: New York City drag artist Valencia Drive is your commercial-free, hi-NRG mix of the 80’s, 90’s and today, here to serve you fashion, comedy, and cartoonish nonsense. Is she woman? Is she machine? Or is she just a drag queen? These and many more questions will go unanswered during an extra special Global Gathering performance by the most stunning, perfect, and legendary drag icon you’ve never, ever heard of before (IG: @thevalenciadrive)

Alia Haju: Alia Haju is a Brooklyn-based artist, filmmaker and musician. She arrived in New York after fleeing Lebanon for the second time in 2020. Alia played her first instrument at the age of 8 and it's been hard to spot her without one since.

Whether it's guitar, oud, tar, riq, or her inimitable vocals, her talents have propelled her onto stages in Beirut and New York and across genres, from alternative rock to rap and baroque classical music, to leftist Arabic classics, singing about working class struggles and revolutions. She collaborates and performs with musicians from across the Middle East and the US as a singer/musician, and composer. She played on the streets of Beirut and New York during the 2019 Lebanese uprising and BLM and Pride protests in 2020. Alia received a grant from NYFA in 2022 to complete the first music album, Bassara, with her group Taktouka Band. Beyond music, Alia got her bachelor's of fine arts at the American University of Beirut and is now an award-winning filmmaker and worldwide published photographer.

She has been published in worldwide media outlets, and her upcoming anima/doc has received various grants such as AFAC, the Doha film institute, and MFG.

Organization Project Project Description
1984 NextCloud for NGOs Human rights activists store data that need to be protected, sorted, and made accessible only to allies. There are alternatives to Google Docs and other commercial services, but how usable and stable are they? Using NextCloud and associated apps, we'll demonstrate how we make secure, hidden virtual offices easy to use.
0xche Mapping and analysis on social organization’s security vulnerabilities in Latin America Project Description: The research project funded by OTF aims to understand the landscape of Latin America in terms of information security by doing grounded fieldwork with regional organizations to understand the common vulnerabilities in their systems and the patterns in their attack surface. We aim to map the state of information security of regional organizations and ignite discussions inside the ecosystem to raise awareness on the possibilities and challenges we face, thinking in defensive strategies, and how an offensive mindset can help us leverage our security. In addition, we plan to contribute with materials based on the identified findings to help highlight the most frequent informational threats and attack patterns that are faced by organizations' in the region.
Access Now Digital Security Helpline Access Now's Digital Security Helpline works with individuals and organizations around the world to keep them safe online. If you're at risk, we can help you improve your digital security practices to keep out of harm's way. If you're already under attack, we provide rapid-response emergency assistance.

The solution supports various protocols such as OpenVPN, WireGuard, Cloak, XRay, etc., which enables VPN traffic masking. The project was created in 2020 supported by Privacy Accelerator and the participation of the human rights organization Roskomsvoboda.

Specially designed interface of Amnezia VPN allows people of any skill level to use it. Amnezia VPN has become popular in countries with high level of censorship, such as Russia, Turkmenistan, Iran, where the popular VPN services are being massively blocked. Amnezia VPN does not collect or transmit any data, which is confirmed by an independent audit from 7ASecurity. The main goal of Amnezia VPN is to develop world best free self-hosted VPN tool with all features of the best commercial VPN services. So that every person in any part of the world could have an easy, reliable and safe access to free Internet. https://en.amnezia.org. In the spring of 2022, the Amnezia VPN team launched Amnezia Free service. By means of this service, more than 250,000 users from Russia were able to bypass military censorship and retained access to independent media and social networks.

Cloudflare Project Galileo Websites that are outlets for politically and culturally sensitive speech are oftentimes the victims of cyberattacks and other malicious Internet attacks. Because these websites champion new ideas and are usually underfunded, they often lack the resources to properly secure themselves from Internet attacks aimed at thwarting and suppressing legitimate free speech. Through Project Galileo, Cloudflare uses its sophisticated cybersecurity tools to help human rights groups, non-profit organizations, journalists, and artistic groups stay online. By offering these protections, Cloudflare seeks to help these organizations maintain their online presence and continue their important work without being disrupted by malicious attacks.

Tella makes it easy to encrypt and hide files on Android and iOS, and to share those files in a secure and private way.

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! Get some new ideas about potential tools and approaches, like the ATT&CK and DISARM frameworks, new threat dashboards in development, open source research tools, and research projects whose reports you may not have heard about yet.

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!

Sursiendo Tecnoafecciones https://sursiendo.org/tecnoafecciones/ En un contexto donde el conocimiento, la reflexión tecnológica y la propia tecnología han sido pensadas y construidas desde marcos racionalistas, occidentales, masculinos y blancos es urgente revincularnos con las tecnologías desde los afectos, los cuidados y los valores que sostienen para crear otros futuros posibles, futuros que sean dignos y tecnodiversos.

Tecnoafecciones es un proyecto que implica repensar la tecnología en clave feminista, descolonial, situada, que nos permita desarrollar y generar pensamiento-acción en torno a nuestra relación con la tecnología a través de una propuesta teórica y el desarrollo de contenidos que presenten las visiones de las comunidades afectadas, junto a propuestas metodológicas de talleres y una campaña digital dirigida a públicos amplios. El proyecto está dirigido a personas que tengan oportunidad de repensar su relación afectiva con las tecnologías: los modos de hacer, los vínculos que habilitan o inhabilitan, los impactos cercanos y lejanos. Buscamos activar nuestra capacidad de creación colectiva, nuestras posibilidades de articularnos políticamente, de rescatar nuestras maneras colectivas de hacer juntas desde la revinculación> y el afecto, nuestra voluntad de reconocernos como comunidad y posibilidad, nuestro compromiso de responsabilizarnos como acción colectiva. Queremos hacer explícita nuestra voluntad de generar impactos deseados y nuestra potencia transformadora de mundos. Nuestra ilusión por construir futuros dignos y justos para todas.
