Collabowriting: Toward a Glocal Grammar of Solidarity

September 30, 2026

Every new word begins as an attempt to name a reality not yet fully understood. In this seventh edition of The Present Tense, Liberato Bautista and Onesimus Emmanuel explore collabowriting, a practice emerging from Bautista's long reflection on glocal organizing and advocacy. Through a summer mentor-mentee exchange, they demonstrate how local experience and global responsibility converge in a grammar of solidarity. Their collaboration did not originate the concept; it revealed its enduring power as a practice of joint attention, shared inquiry, and public witness.
