Abstract

The interview conducted with researcher Paola Ricaurte-Quijano aims to present an account of her experience as a feminist researcher in the field of technologies, currently occupying an in-between academic and political South-North space, advocating for South demands. We address the researcher's trajectory, her political and academic choices, and her perspective on her current place of enunciation. We also discuss issues related to contemporary technologies, such as recommendation algorithms and datafication processes, emphasizing the contributions of a decolonial approach in this field.
