The project generated spaces for the promotion of technology culture. Among its main results, it is important to highlight the critical, meaningful and empowering use of technologies did by the participants in their communities. From its implementation, it is concluded that it is fundamental to promote digital literacy initiatives from critical perspectives, which always aspire to be practices of freedom, dialogue and solidarity. The paper has three sections: first, a brief introduction to the topic and the context where the initiative was led. Second, the presentation of the project, and finally, the main conclusions.
