Welcome to the new OnTheCommons.org

redesigned to better inform, inspire and equip you to make a difference in
your community and the world.  You’ll see no startling changes, just
improvements to make our site easier to use and enjoy.

*Introducing Commons Magazine*

On the left side of the homepage features Commons Magazine
<http://am.ontraport.com/c/s/UwO/NAV/s/6V/Ka/62HGTL/sUiqjeHKZT> which
gathers the latest news and insight about what we all share together.  Our
coverage ranges from investigative reports to visionary proposals to
stories of people reclaiming the commons in their own communities.  Here’s
what you’ll find in each department.

by the rising commons movement.

a sharing revolution
<http://am.ontraport.com/c/s/UwO/NAV/z/6X/Ka/62HGTL/6epGyZVR65> and
promoting greater common happiness
<http://am.ontraport.com/c/s/UwO/NAV/U/6I/Ka/62HGTL/WPTWIq76D> by creating

espoused by commoners ranging from Mahatma Gandhi to Crocodile Dundee.

*Introducing Commons In The Field*

The right side of the homepage is devoted to practical examples of how
commons principles and practice can be applied in your life and society as
a whole.

For nearly a decade, On the Commons has served as a laboratory testing new
strategies and tools in fields ranging from the economy to local government
to climate change.  You can access the results of our experiments to
uncover commons-based solutions that effectively and equitably address many
of our most pressing problems.

Here’s what you’ll find in each department.

*Intro to the Commons* connects the dots
<http://am.ontraport.com/c/s/UwO/NAV/j/6A/Ka/62HGTL/gfAq80BUX> between
commons-based thinking and our aspirations for a more equitable,
sustainable, joyful society.

*Commoners* celebrates the lives and work
<http://am.ontraport.com/c/s/UwO/NAV/5/64/Ka/62HGTL/sOqMqgjNi4> of
inspiring everyday people who show the way to a brighter future.

*Commons Framework* presents the meaning and promise of the commons
<http://am.ontraport.com/c/s/UwO/NAV/r/6K/Ka/62HGTL/64zekIssF1> as a
toolbox for launching significant social, economic and political reform.

*Commons in the Field* details ongoing commons projects
<http://am.ontraport.com/c/s/UwO/NAV/Y/6C/Ka/62HGTL/scLtsj8Xbs> focused in

movement as a whole, so we greatly appreciate your thoughts
