Platohedro

We are a non-profit organization that operates as a collaborative creative platform based in Medellín, Colombia. Since 2004 we have been dedicated to artistic creation and experimentation, the creation of communicative content, and ongoing research into free culture and alternative pedagogies. These processes are guided by the search for common well-being for all, based on the philosophy of Good Living and Good Knowing.

We work to defend and promote human rights by preventing violence, encouraging youth and child participation and leadership, and incorporating a gender perspective in our actions. We promote the exchange of knowledge and thoughts, based on respect and equity, and we propose more dignified and fair alternatives for relationships in search of a liberated society through access to knowledge. We work with grassroots communities and all social practices that seek collective well-being through the transformation of their own realities, according to their dreams and projections, proposing the construction and appreciation of what is common.
