TransHackFeminist convergence

TransHackFeminist convergence (THF!) is an annual gathering of queer feminist and visionary hackers.

The first TransHackFeminist (THF!) convergence took place in Calafou, Catalonia. THF! includes discussions, workshops and sessions where intersectional feminists, queer and trans people of all genders gather to work together and discuss several subjects. THF! adopts an intersectional feminist approach. This framework emphasises the complexities brought by the intersection between gender, sexual orientation, geographical location, ethnicity, class, among others (Toupin, 2014).

"THF! is about being aware of and acknowledging one’s privileges. It is about understanding the relations between privilege and oppression. A THF! practice is about being anti-racist, anti-capitalist, anti-sexist, anti-ableist, anti-homophobic, anti-transphobic, and using hacking as a mean of resistance, sabotage and transformation" (THF! Convergence Report, Calafou, 2014).
