#DigitalJustice is a feminist issue

“The current reproductive crisis is a manifestation of the crisis of the capitalist system itself. Feminist economics gives us the tools to understand how care work subsidizes wealth accumulation.” Andrea Larios @fundarmexico.bsky.social

“We have handed over our most sensitive data to digital infrastructures that neither belong to us nor are publicly owned. There can be no just digital transition if it strengthens the power of Big Tech and leaves the most vulnerable populations exposed.” — Flora Partenio @dawnfeminist.bsky.social

“Our challenge for fiscal justice is to strike the right balance between industrial policy incentives & the expansion of tax revenue streams to address income and wealth divides", Marina Durano
