The Great Renaissance – IASC conference

On October 12 2021, a two-hour worshop was held online as part of the General conference of the International Association for the Study of the Commons (program).

The support can be found on Google: The Great Renaissance : healing commons and technology for self-determination.

A video of the last 15 minutes is going to be released.

Abstract

Our joy of life improves when we feel actors of our life, it declines when restrictions are imposed on us (Ng et al, 2012).

During this workshop, we will explore how thousands of humans can cooperate to solve global crises far more rapidly, adequately, and cheaper than governments or corporations (Balli, 2021).

We will build on the practice and research on commons, pioneered by Dr Elinor Ostrom, first woman awarded the Nobel in economics, and Dr Stefano Rodotà, who led the Italian commission recommending that access to resources depend on their social purpose rather than who owns them.
