Abstract:
Favela Hacklab is a temporary makerspace that acts itinerantly in Brazilian “favelas” (slums). Favelas are peripheral urban areas, inhabited by low-income communities, which lack material and educational resources. Favela Hacklab conducts cycles of workshops and temporary training in art and technology, focusing on electronics, material reuse, manual skills and improvisation, in a context of social impact. The actions are customizable according to the group of participants (children, youth, women) and the territory in which it is being held.
