The Global Technology for Social Justice Lab is a hub for engaged scholarship and action research at the intersection of critical tech studies and global studies.

Our vision is to build a transnational trust network that offers whole-person support for scholars, policymakers, and activists practicing globally minded and community-driven tech research. Our tagline “Beyond Borders, Bits, and Biases” expresses our commitment to principles of transnationalism, human-centeredness, and social justice in our research and community-building.
