RESOURCES AND READINGS
Welcome to our collectively curated resources. Come explore similar digital mapping and archiving projects, alongside publications and other reading that are compiled on mapping and counter-cartographical thinking and praxis, crosscutting diverse geographies and disciplines.
Compilations and collections such as these always remain partial, “incomplete”, and ever-evolving.
Please do not hesitate to reach us should you like a similar initiative you´d like to see included, or a relevant publication, including theses. We welcome open access sources, to the extent possible.
