Design & Oppression is a network of solidarity between all struggles against oppression founded in 2020.

The Arruar group is committed to research practices as an encounter with other practices that dispute the production of the world, especially those that cultivate territories for reinventing life in more collective, supportive and democratic ways. Making the street a verb provokes multiple meanings that are actualized by taking research to the street, as well as the street to academic practice: arruar as ways of investigating territories from the body, memory, experience and everyday life; as an articulation between the many floors, from the peripheries to the centralities, from the city to the non-city, from the material to the imagined, their flows and mobilities; as a critical experimentation with colonial forms of academic practice based on practices of coexistence and mixing of knowledges. Mobilizing written, imagetic, performative and cartographic experimentation, among other ways of 'doing with', Arruar seeks to empower transformative social action, new ecologies and habitabilities through narratives and territorial policies.
