Tania Pérez Bustos ... Free Software, Colombia, India Tania Pérez Bustos is a PhD student from Colombia doing fieldwork in India. Her research is on the educational and gender dimension of experiences like FLOSS (Free/Libre and Open Source Software) that aim to popularize technology. She says, "I really liked the statement in the (BytesForAll) website in which you assume a critical position towards ICT and the political context it is immerse to ... unfortunately not very common." Here, she talks about her work, and her encounter with India, Colombia, and the need for links between these disparate and distant regions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDHZcSnzqi0
