GEOZONe – Geography Zine Organizing Network – is a transnational collective archiving zines and print ephemera broadly concerned with space, place, power, and the earth. Our collection is available for download, print, and distribution in academic and activist spaces. Explore the collection by tags, location, or language. We welcome submissions from zine-makers across the world: see our submission instructions here. We encourage readers to print and distribute materials as they see fit. You can follow us on instagram to receive periodic updates about new zines and any events or projects associated with the network.
