Scaling-up rubber business for fashion in the Amazon rainforest
New social technologies and sociotechnical systems for rubber are happening in the largest rainforest of the world. Despite the inherent challenges, they are possible due to the partnerships between fashion enterprises (i.e. Veja shoes), NGOs (i.e. WWF), Brazilian universities, product designers, rubber tappers cooperatives, indigenous peoples, and multilateral banks, in the name of sustainability. However, the way the partners are making business in the Amazon still repeats old-fashioned practices of colonialism. A PhD researcher will tell you this story and show how we move from neocolonial to decolonial practices.
