Tech’s not fair. We need TECH JUSTICE.
Main Content

Imagine a world where technology serves everyone.
… a world where technology liberates and restores…
We live in a world based on oppression and exploitation. Where people and the Earth suffer through inequity, bias and discrimination. The way technology is designed and run perpetuates this system.
Why tech’s not fair
…where communities have the power to shape the tech that impacts them.
We’re building collective power to make tech fair for everyone. We bring together those negatively affected by technology and others who care. We amplify their voices. We challenge the status quo.

It’s going to take all of us
We’re a network of people both privileged by and harmed by technology. We imagine a different world… where equity is a reality and no one misses out on tech’s benefits.


From edge to centre
We prioritise the expertise of people with lived experience of violence, inequity, oppression, and trauma. Those pushed to the margins. Those most harmed by technology.

Change is happening
“Catalyst is really, really thinking about power and notions of liberation and collective responsibility around technology. That’s exactly the kind of maturity we need in our sector.”
Hera Hussain, Chayn, Community Member
“Catalyst has a great way of exploring, taking the next step while reaching into communities. And working at the other end of the scale with funders. Then bringing everyone together. There’s such a possibility of magic happening.”
Linda, Former Steering Group member
“Bringing EDI into tech is a really tricky area for charities. Catalyst is the first organisation I’ve seen tackling that challenge head-on.”
Matt Collins, Platypus Digital, Catalyst Network Member
