Clark and Bikmohammadi Named #PITUN Grantees
Dr. Erin Clark, Rhetoric, Writing, and Professional Communication doctoral student Mina Bikmohammadi, and Dr. Ryan Cheek (Missouri S&T) were named #PITUN #NetworkChallenge24 grantees. The group will convene scholars, students, and community partners at Missouri S&T and East Carolina University to create zines as a form of public interest technology that advances gender justice and promotes technological equity.
The 2024 projects center the needs of communities that have historically been excluded from technology design, workforce and policy, and will empower communities through partnerships with minority-serving institutions, local and state government and nonprofits.
