Dear Andrea, I got this appeal via Devin, I think there is a lot of policy experience also within the FC Forum, a pluralist organisation of internet rights activists and creators, which includes some expert members of the Pirate Party and other groups, and it produced two of its own reports, one on cultural rights and one on economic sustainability of free culture (see http://fcforum.net/ ; http://p2pfoundation.net/Free_Culture_Forum, http://p2pfoundation.net/Category:Culture) at the p2p-f, we are collating policy pages at http://p2pfoundation.net/Category:Policy (broader than free culture) so don't hesitate to update me and I can forward to both p2p-f and fcforum mailing lists, I imagine some of us on those two lists are still young enough to be students at uni's, and all of them are students of life, once you know what kind of assistance would be most useful, do let us know, Michel On Wed, Jul 20, 2011 at 10:22 PM, Devin Balkind <[email protected]

I think the P2P-F community could be very helpful to Students for Free Culture (SFC) as they draft this position paper.

Hi everyone!
The next SFC conference will most likely be in Europe and we chose the European Parliament as a location. The conference will be a little difference than what we had until now. The idea is to have one full day where students and policy makers sit side by side to promote open access, open source and the mixing and sharing of culture across the EU. With this goal in mind we aim at producing a position papers in the months preceding the event in order to present it there. The paper will be then sent for review to the EU commission for consideration. As things take time and holidays is just around the corner, are you interested in collaborating in this project?
Whether your knowledge is of EU institutions, free culture or advocacy you should help out in drafting this paper so that we can propose our beliefs and raise awareness on topics of fundamental importance in todays digitalized world!
Let's make it happen!
