Manifesto

P2P Models is a research project that combines social research and free/libre technologies to foster social and economic justice. Our challenge is to co-create inclusive decentralized tools and theories. We seek practical applications to facilitate collective action.

1.
Inclusive Tech

co-designed with communities to have an impact in their lives, while using open decentralized tech.

2.
Horizontality

we believe in collective and horizontal decision-making, and decentralization of power.

3.
Feminism

as a transversal practice to balance power, promote post-meritocracy, and value caring, invisible work, and a sustainable life.

4.
Commons-driven

with a fully open culture for our software, research and outcomes, while supporting commons-based communities.

5.
Diversity

since we collectively grow and learn through our differences and views, we seek and explore diverse methods, disciplines and people.

6.
Research

with social impact and strong principles: technology is not neutral, action-research methods, interdisciplinary environment.
