How to change the international rules for the commons in European Union?

[Michel Bauwens]

We are pleased to informe you that the workshop  :

How to change the international rules
for the commons in European Union?

will take place May, 22sd, from 13:00 to 16:00
at the Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung e.V. Schumannstr. 8, Berlin.

It aims to take advantage of the opportunity offered by the Economics Commons Conference (ECC) that will take place from 22 to 24 of may in Berlin, to share initiatives that converge around commons based rights approaches, especially in European Union.

The workshop would bring together some 25/30 people (mainly) from Europe, to discuss, share information on the campaigns and  agendas, do links between initiatives in particular on :

- legislative changes or frameworks used by commons
- ongoing work on services of general interest within the European legislation.

We would like to offer the opportunity to share, build and renew
common arguments, used within the struggles dedicated to the different types of commons ressources (material / immaterial, Globa / local, ... etc), at the local, national and European level.

The invitation is open to people, registered and not registered in the ECC. It is also open to people from other régions that could share their own researches and experiments and take advantage from the European one.

The methodology is a work in progress. It is based on an open
discussion with short presentations of initiatives, depending of the participants registered.

If you are willing to do so, please give us a reply as soon as possible and (for the participants to ECC, consider the changes that this may imply in your travel arrangements and schedule.
