Missouri S&T Public Interest Technology University Network chapter
As an academic community that believes in technology’s potential to have a positive impact on public life, Missouri S&T is honored to be recognized as a member of the Public Interest Technology University Network (PIT-UN).
The Zine Lab leverages zine-making, a historical countercultural form of publishing, as a public interest technology to instill communication, collaboration, and content creation skills that advance gender justice and promote technological equity. Scholars, students, and community partners at Missouri S&T and East Carolina University will produce four zines covering gender-affirming technologies, reproductive health care technologies, technologies affecting survivors of gender violence, and technologies affecting women and gender minorities on campus. Outcomes include a toolkit for educators with lesson plans, activities, and media resources.
