Fighting for social transformation is a constant of our work here at ZEMOS98. We have consolidated our role as intermediaries between different parties over the last few years in order to encourage a culture of participation, the construction of the critical citizen, a takeover from the dominant narratives and care for the common goods. The position we now hold is intangible but crucial, that of the mediator.Our aim is to connect the social and the cultural with the political. Mediation enables us to do this, instigating working relationships between activists, artists, academics, public institutions and foundations with the aim of connecting the social and the cultural with the political. It is a tool. Mediation is a tool that is cable of designing processes and mechanismsMediation is a tool, both for the imagination and for intervention, that is capable of designing processes and mechanisms that serve to generate a more democratic and inclusive society.
