The Contestation Café is a place for you to bring your broken interactions with Algorithmic and Automated Decision Systems.

If you have experienced unfair treatment by an algorithm, an AI or any other non-human entity, this is the place for you.

The Café is a supportive and inclusive environment which strives to provide you with the agency and tools to negotiate with and contest decisions made by these opaque systems.

Our team of volunteer Fixers are here to guide you through the process of opening up the black boxes of technology, and mapping, understanding and contesting with what lies within. Through this shared process, we intend to give you the autonomy to find ways to push back and repair these decisions and to redesign these algorithms, systems and interactions for the future.
