organizational public function, the development and publication of the annual report is always a time of reflection here at IT for Change.<\/p>\n<p>It provides the necessary room to step back and take stock of our journey so far, to assess the progress we have made during another year at the front-lines of digital justice, and importantly, to evaluate and confront with bare honesty all that remains to be done. While Covid-19 is a continuous presence in the backdrop, the world has cautiously emerged from the chokehold of the pandemic. From weathering the second and third waves of the pandemic to returning to on-site work, in-person events, field work, and even global travel and networking, the year has been challenging and hopeful for the world at large, and the IT for Change team in many ways.<\/p>\n<p>We have continued to further the digital justice agenda at global and local levels, throwing ourselves into an ever-growing roster of research projects and initiatives, engaging with emerging focus areas, and forging new partnerships, while strengthening old ones. We continue to grow our impact in the developmental sector by influencing techno-social changes and policymaking in our thematic areas of work, moving towards supporting inclusive, egalitarian, and just policy frameworks \u2014 from the grassroots to the highest echelons of international rule-making. An uncompromising standpoint, based on intersectional feminist values and substantive equality, has always informed this tapestry of work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-w63de91f123e24-1-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w63de91f123e24-1-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"3\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-w63de91f123e24-1-1-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p>This year, we have been part of key flashpoint victories, campaigns that we led or threw our weight behind. We have also seen the rewards of years of work galvanize into global agendas, gaining wider traction. Across these endeavors, we recognize that our work strengthens and is strengthened by the energies of a larger set of actors, feeding into instances of impact.<\/p>\n<p>We capture in our annual report for the year 2021-22, the high notes of these efforts. We have distilled innumerable hours of knowledge production, field work, community engagement, and local-to-global advocacy undertaken by the 50+ members of the IT for Change team into a short reflective narrative. Whether you are an old friend of the organization, or a new partner, we invite you to engage with our report and get to know us and our work better.<\/p>\n<p>We commit to continue our efforts \u2014 with an eye on the future \u2014 building our internal capacity to further our vision and strong legacy. Some of the main planks of our work in the coming year include continuing the important fight against Big Tech, co-shaping a global movement to democratize global digital cooperation, incubating a viable communitarian use case for AI in education, developing legal-institutional responses to gendered hate speech, and reclaiming labor rights in the digital paradigm.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:

digital capitalism and the attendant regulatory deficits that entrench the status quo, a notable discursive shift has occurred in the public consciousness. The consensus is that Big Tech simply can\u2019t be allowed to get away any longer. In this regard, a growing wave of regulation that seeks to make corporations more accountable is only a welcome first step. What is missing from this conversation, and indeed, rendered invisible, is the ever-increasing influence of the private sector in rule-making in the digital space. This has the disastrous consequence of eroding public interest and undercutting economic justice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-w63de91f124a71-1-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w63de91f124a71-1-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"3\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p>The need of the hour is to take on the question of what kind of governance can set right this hollowing out of publicness.

Our <a href=\"https:\/\/datasyn.substack.com\/p\/2021-versus-big-tech\">year-end issue<\/a> featuring 21 key voices reflecting on the struggles against Big Tech in 2021 is a feat that we are particularly proud of.

With our institutions and systems steadily getting datafied, public infrastructure and services like education and health are rapidly becoming integrated with transnational digital value chains. It is more important than ever before for people and nations of the Global South to reclaim their data and digital infrastructure. This calls for checking geoeconomic and geopolitical power in the digital space, and relocalizing the gains of the digital in a sustainable and equitable manner.

Since our in-school girls\u2019 clubs were not possible to organize in this period, the radio program was a timely innovation, using a range of innovative formats \u2014 expert interviews with feminist counsellors, teachers, activists, and mental health professionals; a fictionalized mini-serial on adolescent girls\u2019 challenges for self-actualization; and inspirational stories of girls who broke barriers \u2014 in order to communicate and reinforce a feminist narrative about adolescence. Girls from marginalized social backgrounds enthusiastically participated in the brainstorming and content development. Over 600 girls were reached through this program and the audio bank of content will be taken to schools across the state in the coming year.
