Hi, my name is Zana.
I’m all about using my unearned privilege and earned knowledge to create and participate in processes that champion social justice and liberation through a combination of values, practices, sites, and narratives — a goal guided by this movement called Design Justice. I am particularly interested in — but not limited to — working within the areas of social implications of the Internet and ICTs in politics.
Two Kinds of Intelligence is a weekly newsletter where we talk about how technology shapes our social and political lives, and vice versa — who it harms, who it benefits, and how we can do better. The name of the newsletter — as most of you might know — alludes to Rumi’s eponymous poem, which is one of my most favourites.
I am excited to collaborate with organisations and individuals who are committed to leverage technology to create products & processes to make the world a more just and liberated place. If you are in pursuit of someone with an industry background in digital project management, writing, research, and a sociological academic perspective to add more value to your team as a researcher / writer / project manager / rapporteur / any roles on strategically figuring things out — hire me!
