Whose Knowledge? (WK?) is seeking to expand and enrich our Board of Directors by bringing in new members, with lived and learnt experience and expertise from different backgrounds, communities and movements. We are looking for 3-4 committed humans to join our Board, who share our values and dreams, starting in early 2025. This is a unique opportunity to shape and contribute to what governance and accountability mean for a feminist collective that works at the intersections of knowledge and tech justice, across the world.
Whose Knowledge?
Whose Knowledge? is a global and translocal feminist initiative working to center the histories, knowledges, imaginations and leadership of communities marginalized by intersecting structures of historical and ongoing power and privilege. Our focus is on those we call the "minoritized majority" of the world—women, LGBTQI+ communities, Indigenous and caste-oppressed peoples, working-class folks, and communities from Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Pacific Islands and the Caribbean, and their diasporas.
Our goal: To transform the internet into a knowledge infrastructure that reflects the full richness and textures of human knowledges, languages, and ways of being and doing.
We exist to: Resist and challenge Big Tech (Silicon Valley and other dominant tech spaces) and Big Knowledge (academia, publishing, GLAM or memory institutions); and to reimagine and prototype alternative ways of amplifying our knowledges through feminist, anti-colonial technologies.
We do this by: Working in solidarity and shared leadership with the communities we serve to share their knowledges, build digital tools, and support advocacy for a just, feminist and decolonized internet.
Why Join Our Board?
As a board member, you will support us to make connections between different contexts and struggles, and help us leverage WK? 's strengths in a constantly evolving and complex environment. You will have the opportunity to contribute to liberatory presents and futures where tech and knowledge infrastructures reflect equity, justice, and multiple lived expertises. You’ll help ensure sound fiduciary systems while reimagining and practising governance and accountability structures that challenge patriarchal and colonial-capitalist norms.
Time Commitment: Approximately 10 days annually, including five board meetings (virtual, with one in-person annual gathering).
Location: Primarily remote, with one annual in-person meeting.
Compensation: This is an unremunerated voluntary role, with all expenses related to travel for Board work covered.
Is This You?
We are seeking visionary leaders aligned with our feminist and anti-oppressive politics and our commitment to liberatory knowledge, technology, and social justice. We are currently looking for 3-4 individuals, one of whom will fill the role of Treasurer, who can bring diverse skills and experiences to our board. If any of the criteria below sound like you, please tell us you’re interested!
We are deeply committed to building a board that reflects the richness and complexity of the communities we serve. We believe that a governance and accountability structure enriched by multiple voices and intersectional expertise, leads to more thoughtful, informed, just and liberatory strategies, decisions, and practices.
