Dear all,

Unfortunately I won't be able to make it to the Meeting in Berlin in
October but do check out a number of other conferences on commons that are
coming up soon, organized by the International Association for the Study of
the Commons, an international non-profit organization that brings together
scientists and practitioners working on commons. I'd would like to draw
your attention to no less than five upcoming IASC-conferences on various
issues related to the commons. Check out the list underneath and join us in
Bologna, Bern, Paris, Anchorage, or Utrecht. As a member of the IASC, you
are not only entitled to a reduced publication fee in the IJC, but also to
a reduced conference fee. Are you not yet a member of the IASC? Do consider
joining our community and enjoy the opportunities and benefits IASC offers
to its members.

Do also check out the IASC’s  open-access, peer-reviewed International
Journal of the Commons (published at least twice a year, current impact
factor 1.538). Members get a considerable discount on the page fee when
publishing in the journal. Also all our other publications, such as the
quarterly publication Commons Digest, are free to consult.

Do also consider to put your own case study in the picture on our flyers
(see the Picture this!-campaign),  in our online Commons in Action series
on our website and consider to use our communication platform CommonsNet to
communicate with other members.

Get informed via the IASC…

Members can also take part in the IASC-Online Courses on the Commons, see
http://www.ccri.ac.uk/managing-our-common-resources/. As a member you will
also receive on a regular basis the IASC newsletter. Click here for our
news overview.

At the moment, we are thinking of expanding our services to members, by
offering other services such as a collection of teaching materials, an
extensive archive of audiovisual materials and more.  In order to set our
priorities, we have developed a short questionnaire, which you can fill out
via this link. Please share your ideas and comments with us. Your feedback
is very valuable to us!

Also know that the IASC is the host institution for the Elinor Ostrom
Award, the biennial award created to honor and develop the legacy of Elinor
Ostrom. The award aims to acknowledge and promote the work of
practitioners, young scholars, and senior scholars involved in the field of
the commons and is awarded biennially at the Biennial Conferences of the
IASC.

For a concise overview of our past and future activities, have a look at
the presentation used at the IASC Membership Meeting at the IASC Biennial
Conference 2015 in Edmonton. Or visit the IASC Website at
