The publication introduces some of the main areas of media practice and communication technologies being organised and developed by collectives and volunteers.
The book is divided in the following sections: Media Ownership and Open Publishing, Net-Politics, Free/Libre and Open Source Software, Approaching Digital Divides and Community Networking. Introductory essays are followed by short project descriptions. These are human-scale initiatives, operating outside of corporate or governmental structures. They use communication for social purposes and are driven by a desire to see technology developed out of social contexts and the interests and needs of people. Survival Kit is a reader for the RAM4: Survival Kit workshop in Helsinki in November 2003.
