TRASDEJ | TRASDEJ - Transatlantic alliances between sexual dissidents for environmental justice

Summary
The research “TRASDEJ- Transatlantic alliances betweenThe research “TRASDEJ- Transatlantic alliances between sexual dissidents for environmental justice” focuses on explore, analyze, and create horizontal bridges between the multiple political spaces of struggle for environmental justice from the indigenous sexual-dissidents in the south of Mexico and dynamic spaces of queer struggles, Berlin and rural communities against coal mines, in Germany. It addresses the question: Which socio-environmental strategies can be observed among indigenous sex-gender dissidents from southern Mexico for the defense of their territories and European queer activists for environmental justice? Following this question and using a critical ethnography methodology, TRASDEJ focuses on concrete and local life experience from sex-gender diverse actors for environmental justice across the Atlantic Ocean. The research deploys a mixed methods approach: narrative interviews; auto-ethnography; focus groups as well as Knowledge Exchange Workshops (KEW) with a combined format mixing face-to-face and digital encounters. The proposal makes use of post-colonial, intersectional and non-binary gender approaches to analyze and make visible the strategies from sex-gender dissidents inside the socio-environmental struggles in Germany and southern Mexico. TRASDEJ aims at providing face-to-face and digital platforms for exchange experience of resistance, vulnerabilities, and social struggles between indigenous sexual dissidents in the south of Mexico and queer European activists. It will also create spaces for exchange of experiences and identify the differences, similarities and potential bridges for the study of sexualities and international collaborations between subaltern groups for environmental justice.
