With a keen eye on the ways in which biocultural knowledge and practices are constructed in the territories of the Global South, this weekly publication aims to analyze the diverse responses to global threats, civilizational collapse, and the forms of struggle in these territories for the defense of the right to life. By situating the study within the impact of capitalist modernity and historically rooted socio-territorial colonial projects, it seeks to foster dialogue around new perspectives in decolonial research that narrate knowledge-building practices from the Global South.
