The Saudi Cyberfeminist Visual Index (SCVI) is an open-source, web-based platform developed as part of an academic study. Rooted in feminist digital indexing practices and Saudi feminist ethics, the SCVI serves as an interactive and searchable digital index documenting the Saudi Cyberfeminist Movement (SCM) from 2011 to 2021 and its continuing impact.
Focusing on two pivotal campaigns — #EndMaleGuardianship and #Women2Drive — the SCVI captures the narratives, strategies, and achievements of these landmark movements. By indexing social media posts, blog entries, images, and videos, the SCVI safeguards these ephemeral materials from digital erasure while preserving the legacy of Saudi cyberfeminism.
The SCVI is more than an archive; it is a living, dynamic resource designed to function as a historical record, a pedagogical tool, and a reference for scholars, artists, and activists. By preserving the contributions of Saudi cyberfeminists, it enhances global understanding of digital feminist activism while emphasizing the intersection of gender, technology, and culture in Saudi Arabia.
To ensure long-term access, data integrity, and decentralized distribution, the archive is available through the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). The full archive is downloadable with the following IPNS name: /ipns/k51qzi5uqu5dk2utf9pdq5720xex3skpfyc6bh52htsib3iwhk98661izn0x4x
