Interference Archive: Internal Governance Workshop
About: The Interference Archive is a public archive based in Brooklyn that focuses on social movements in the 20th and 21st century. The organization is completely volunteer-run and has been operating for over 20 years.
I along with a few other volunteers participated in an Internal Governance Workshop to collaboratively build a more sustainable and equitable work structure for the archive.
Result: Transparent conversations about gender-bias in volunteer work. Led to the creation of new working groups including the Orientation Working Group, which focused on managing orientation education and processes.
