项目摘要

'Precarious Publishing in Latin America: Relations, meaning and community in movement' (hereafter 'Precarious Publishing') is an ongoing AHRC project funded by the Global Challenges Research Fund from 2018 to 2020. 'Precarious Publishing' focuses on a contemporary publishing phenomenon known in Latin America as editoriales cartoneras, often translated as 'cardboard publishing', because one feature that unites these 250 community organisations is the material from which they make their books: recycled cardboard. Yet the term 'cartonera' encompasses far more than the word 'cardboard'. It is also a reference to the cartonero figure - the cardboard collector or waste picker, a consequence of economic crisis, unemployment and poverty - that was so central in the formation of the first cartonera publisher Eloisa Cartonera in Buenos Aires (2003). Fifteen years on, some of these publishers, like Eloisa and Dulcineia (São Paulo), continue to work with waste-pickers. Many others have recycled the model of promoting change through community workshops, adapting it to address specific social and economic challenges: some work with groups of school children from marginalized rural areas, others with human rights in conflict zones, and others still, promoting sustainable production and consumption of materials and other resources. The 'Precarious Publishing' research team has developed an innovative and interdisciplinary methodological framework to research on - and contribute to - cartonera practices in Mexico and Brazil. This framework is composed of a constellation of collaborative methods, including encuentros cartoneros (round-table debates and open forum discussions), co-publications, exhibitions, and workshops. The 'Activating the Arts' Follow-on-Funding develops the potential for impact arising from this process, by creating unforeseen pathways arising from ongoing engagement with our cartonera collaborators. Together, we have identified the cartonera workshop as the most robust and portable model of community outreach activity, able as it is to respond and adapt to different short and long-term development challenges. Our Follow on Funding brings together academics from Durham University and the University of Surrey, four cartonera publishers (two in Mexico, two in Brazil) - project collaborators with whom the research team have strong existing working relations - and other public stakeholders from the Ministry of Education in Mexico to the Director of the Mário de Andrade Library in São Paulo. Together, we will build, test, share and track an innovative programme of collaborative, creative workshops focused on education for sustainable development (ESD). The four cartonera publishers have been chosen because of their existing engagement with different global challenges, most particularly their work relating to inclusive and quality education; sustainable cities and communities; tackling stigma and inequality; and the promotion of peace and justice. 'Activating the Arts', will first pilot 4 sets of 15 workshops in rural and urban locations in Mexico and Brazil. These workshops will incorporate reflection with action, artistic creativity with social awareness, to build capacity to respond to specific local challenges - which in turn map onto global challenges including quality education, equality, peace and justice, and sustainability. On the basis of this pilot, we will then create a cartonera outreach programme - designed to instantiate multidimensional social and welfare impact - to be shared with all cartonera actors and their collaborators working in NGOs, social movements, and other social initiatives. The potential scalability of this portable socio-artistic model, combined with the transnational networks and collaborations that are already in place, provides an exciting opportunity to build capacity for sustainable development in hard-to-reach, marginalized communities in LMICs across and beyond Latin America.

'Precarious Publishing in Latin America: Relations, meaning and community in movement' (hereafter 'Precarious Publishing') is an ongoing AHRC project funded by the Global Challenges Research Fund from 2018 to 2020. 'Precarious Publishing' focuses on a contemporary publishing phenomenon known in Latin America as editoriales cartoneras, often translated as 'cardboard publishing', because one feature that units these 250 community organisations is the material from which他们制作书籍：回收的纸板。然而，“ cartonera”一词所包含的范围远远超过“纸板”一词。这也是对Cartonero人物的参考 - 经济危机，失业和贫困的结果 - 纸板收集器或废物拾取器 - 在布宜诺斯艾利斯（Buenos Aires）的第一批Cartonera Publishera Publisher Eloisa Cartonera（2003）中是如此中心。十五年了，其中一些出版商，例如Eloisa和Dulcineia（圣保罗），继续与废物挑选者合作。许多其他人回收了通过社区研讨会促进变革的模型，将其调整以应对特定的社会和经济挑战：有些人与来自边缘化农村地区的小学生一起工作，另一些人在冲突地区拥有人权，而其他人仍在促进可持续生产和消费材料和其他资源。 “不稳定的出版”研究团队开发了一种创新和跨学科的方法论框架，以研究（并为墨西哥和巴西的cartonera实践）进行研究。该框架由一系列协作方法组成，其中包括Encuentros Cartoneros（圆桌会议辩论和开放论坛讨论），共同举办，展览和讲习班。通过与我们的Cartonera合作者的持续互动而产生的不可预见的途径，“激活艺术”的后续资金进行了源于这一过程产生的影响的潜力。一起，我们将Cartonera研讨会确定为社区外展活动的最强大和便携式模型，可以做出反应并适应不同的短期和长期发展挑战。我们的资金之后将达勒姆大学和萨里大学的学者汇集在一起，四家Cartonera出版商（墨西哥两家出版商，两家在巴西） - 研究团队与研究团队有牢固的现有工作关系 - 以及来自墨西哥教育部的其他公共利益相关者，墨西哥的总监兼MárioDeandrade Library in Souno Paulo的MárioDeandrade Library。我们将共同建立，测试，共享和跟踪针对可持续发展教育（ESD）的协作，创意研讨会的创新计划。之所以选择四家Cartonera出版商，是因为他们现有与全球不同的挑战，尤其是与包容性和优质教育有关的工作；可持续城市和社区；应对污名和不平等；以及促进和平与正义。 “激活艺术”将首先在墨西哥和巴西的粗糙和城市地点进行4套15套研讨会。这些研讨会将与行动，艺术创造力与社会意识相结合，以建立应对特定当地挑战的能力 - 反过来又涉及全球挑战，包括优质教育，平等，和平，和平与正义以及可持续性。然后，根据该飞行员，我们将与所有Cartonera Actors及其在非政府组织，社会运动和其他社会计划的合作者共享一个Cartonera Outreach计划 - 旨在实例化多维社会和福利影响。这种便携式社会艺术模型的潜在可扩展性，结合已经建立的跨国网络和协作，为在拉丁美洲和超越拉丁美洲以外的LMIC的难以触及的，边缘化的社区建立可持续发展的能力提供了一个令人兴奋的机会。
