I am based very Amsterdam but heard about this event from Facebook. It was not clear from the website if registration fee will be charged. In case there is a fee for participation, although I am very close it seems as many other commoners it would not possible for me to join this event; let alone the ethic problem of charging people for already funded event by EU, with public money.

Peer Value:Advancing the Commons Collaborative Economy is a conference integrating conversations and plans of action for shaping and connecting the Commons on a global level.
The conference is organized along three tracks:- Track 1: P2P: Inclusive Politics, Activism and Law for the Commons
- Track 2: Decentralized Tech and Beyond:Global Design,Local Production
- Track 3: From Platform to Open Cooperativism
We will explore questions such as:- What are the conditions that encourage communities to work as peers, creating commons?
- What are the best practices communities can adopt to safeguard their resilience?
- Decentralization - why is it important, and how is it implemented and maintained?
- How can the working methodologies honed by well-established digital communities act as transitional guidelines for sustainable “material” manufacturing?
- What about social innovation and livelihoods - how does contributory and open accounting work with the systems of value creation found in CBPP?
- How can civil society participate in recommending policy proposals that support CBPP for governments at the local, regional, national - even global - levels?
Join your peers, add your voice and take part in the growing conversation about the Commons as an important, emerging collaborative social model.
This event is funded by a European Union FP7 research grant.
