As explained previously, we are working on an Observatory of Precarity in the Cultural Sector in Spain. The Observatory is thought of as a dynamic platform that shows metric data regarding current worker conditions and provides more visibility to the problem of precarity for cultural workers. At the same time, it allows users to create networks with each other and reach out to help entities after posting their public denouncement. Thanks to blockchain technology, the platform will be transparent and harder to censor. In this post we introduce the starting point we are going to use for the Observatory prototype and we present its architecture. Some features might be included or excluded in the following months, therefore some components might change but the main idea is still valid and worth sharing. So let’s dive into it!
