“…This strategy is useful for communicating and creating awareness among the youth. Moreover, this kind of practical activism is reflecting the 'DIY (Do It Yourself) culture' among youth -where activists deploy various media forms, including producing handmade items and artworks to create participatory political cultures (Zobl & Drüeke, 2012).…”

The lack of understanding and awareness on shark’s conservation in Indonesia is still largely found. Evidently, it could be seen from the massive reducing number of shark’s population, irresponsible consumption of shark meat, and constant activities on illegal, unregulated and unreported shark fishing and finning in Indonesia. On the other hand, shark existence is considered critical for sustainability in the marine area. In 2012, Savesharks Indonesia has started an online campaign on Twitter as their effort to raise public awareness of the critical role of sharks’ conservation. However, social media activism has the possibility to lead into ‘slacktivism’, or ‘feel good’ activism; without creating a meaningful impact for the cause. This article is intended to explore the relationship between online environmental activism and its implication toward the cause. On the first stage, we analyse the Twitter content in 2014 Savesharks campaign – based on Lovejoy & Saxton (2012) framework of communicative functions in Twitter environmental advocacy. On the second stage, we conduct interviews with informants who represent Savesharks’ campaign audience – to investigate the level of activism that the audience refers to in this campaign. Results indicate that Savesharks Indonesia online activism has reached the action stage where the audience were involved not only in online realm of activism but also in offline forms. However, the online activism of Savesharks Indonesia was reflecting more of a “populist political activism” (Lim, 2013). As such, it is still questionable whether the activism could lead to tangible political actions (e.g. influencing the environmental policies).

“…Als Kommunikations-und Begegnungsraum strukturiert und ermöglicht das Internet transnationale Dynamiken, es ist ein Ort für feministischen Aktivismus über Grenzen hinweg (exemplarisch: Chatterjee/Ling Lee 2012; Kannengießer 2014). Feministische mediale Ausdrucksformen rekurrieren im europäischen Kontext in erheblichem Ausmaß auf das Internet, die Blogosphäre ist hierfür ebenso zentral wie die Vernetzung über soziale Medien und die Produktion und Verbreitung von zines (Zobl/Reitsamer 2012). Online-Räume wie Blogs sind aber auch im Globalen Süden zentrale feministische Begegnungs-und Sozialisationsorte für junge Menschen (vgl.…”

“…Within such spaces, participants have found the capacity to establish protective codes of conduct and clear lines of accountability (Finley, 2018). Feminist media studies has elevated participation and community control as a strategy for people seeking to transform media environments that have historically marginalized them (Kember & Zylinska, 2012;Zobl & Drüeke, 2012). When a Malaysia-based international process developed "Feminist Principles of the Internet," the principle of "governance" extrapolated this logic with a call to "democratise policy making affecting the internet as well as diffuse ownership of and power in global and local networks" (Association for Progressive Communications, 2014).…”

Governable Spaces: A Feminist Architecture for Platform Policy

Feminist tradition reveals with particular clarity how the online economy has contrived to be both apparently open and persistently unaccountable. Diverse feminist critiques amount to an overlapping insistence that the systems that organize our technology should be governable by the people who rely on them. This article extrapolates from feminist insights and experiences toward a policy agenda for vexing challenges in three domains of the online economy: social-media communities, platform-mediated work, and network infrastructure. The agenda calls for crafting “governable spaces” through diverse and accountable forms of user participation.
