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.
The TNBI Cycling Project ran from March – July 2025 and was a collaboration between Matt Smith (University of Brighton), Beck Cedar (The Clare Project) and Lea Cooper (Zine-maker). The aim was to better understand the benefits, facilitators and barriers to cycling for Trans, Non-binary and Intersex (TNBI) folk in and around Brighton & Hove. It is the first academic study to focus on TNBI experiences of utility and leisure cycling. As a team we would like to extend our gratitude for all the TNBI folks who contributed to the discussion groups and the zine.

The zine is now used by POWHR as an educational and organizing tool for community members of all ages and backgrounds.

Ecolesbianism is a concept we co-created, bringing together queer ecologies, political lesbianism, ecofeminism, transecology, ecosexuality, and our own experiences.Ecolesbianism explores our relationship with the Earth and asks: what if our interspecies relationships are lesbian too? We argue …
