g2g is a diverse group of women located in different parts of Brazil who are rethinking, among other things, gender and technology. We are connected by a discussion list, a website and occasional face to face encounters.

g2g is taking part in the take back the tech (retome a tecnologia) campaign for the second time, posting Portuguese translations of the daily actions on its blog (http://www.interfaceg2g.org) and on a couple of discussion lists, collecting relevant bookmarks, and more... A special highlight this year is that from 2 to 5 December 2007 various members of g2g will take part in the first Brazilian edition of the Eclectic Tech Carnival, or /etc-br (see http://etc.interfaceg2g.org), to be held in Salvador in Bahia state. During the "three days of discussions and workshops between women about women and technology and horizontal practices" - taking back the tech - we will be discussing the campaign and incorporating its themes and actions where relevant and possible.
