Multimodal environmental activism in the Northern Triangle of Central America: digital media, bio-cultural heritage, and de-coloniality

This paper considers a new form of organization, education, a d communication that has been mobilized in defense of biocultural heritage in the northern triangle of Central America: the creation and use of digital spaces as part of a multimodal environmental activism. In the hands of various organizations and networks of groups with common interests, the digital space is at once a generative and disruptive space: generative in that it is conducive to the creation of identities, discourses, and arc hives created by multiple actors, in different positions, and disruptive in that it serves as a means of dissemination of alternative epistemologies and ethics.This paper considers a new form of organization, education, a d communication that has been mobilized in defense of biocultural heritage in the northern triangle of Central America: the creation and use of digital spaces as part of a multimodal environmental activism.
