CATALINA ALZATE
I'm a designer, researcher, educator and project lead.
I treat design and pedagogy as vehicles for putting politics into practice. I am interested in subverting the ways that technology is designed, often monopolized and serving the interests of a few, towards more communal, community-driven processes for technology design.

Areas of work include Participatory Design and Service Design, Feminist Theory and Social Justice. I complement my practice with graphic design, visual thinking, collage and illustration.

  • Currently an advisor for the Feminist Internet Research Network, (link) ​where we do collaborative research about Gender and Digital Technologies across activisms in the Global South.
  • I'm an Assistant Professor of Practice at the School of Design and Creative Technologies in UT Austin.
