Autonets Convergence aims to brings together hackers, anti-racist coders,
gender hackers, gender changers, dancers, movement makers, poets,
performers, media makers, anti-violence, transformative justice and prison
abolitionist activists by giving them a space to share their knowledge and
their skills in order to help stop violence against queer and trans*
people, people of color, disabled people, two-spirit people, sex workers
and women.

Engaging in discussion with the local community members based in Toronto as
well as with the community at UofT about the kinds of violence we face
daily, we will collectively work towards creative community-based responses
to end violence, creating experiences and skills which at the end of the
workshop we can take back to our own communities. The goal is to seed a
movement of creative free/libre/open source technologies in concert with
non-digital, community based solutions, to end gendered, racialized, sexual
and ableist violence.
