<p>&quot;The Building digital commons  event aims to create entrance doors 
and give projection  to collaborative communities building digital 
commons, encourage the mutual learning and support between digital 
commons following similar values and principles, building bridges 
between action and research, and address new frontiers and cutting-edge 
questions to promote commons initiatives in new ways.
</p><p>Goals:
</p>
<ul><li> Stress the makers &amp; creators approach � To increase the 
visibility and address the specificities of collaborative communities 
around the building of digitals commons as part of the overall free 
culture and digital rights movement.
</li></ul>
<p><br>
</p>
<ul><li> Mapping digital commons and promote common actions � identify 
initiatives, promote coalitions and find ways to support each other.
</li></ul>
<p><br>    
</p>
<ul><li> Systematize experiences &amp; learn from each other (at the 
legal, infrastructural, sustainable, participation and governance 
levels). Learn from participative communities such as Wikipedia and 
others, and other sectors of social and collaborative production, such 
as cooperative.
</li></ul>
<p><br>    
</p>
<ul><li> Create procommons references �To remark the distinction between
 the governance of digital commons and other forms of 
corporate-providers communities and promote free and open 
infrastructure.
</li></ul>
<p><br>    
</p>
<ul><li> Build bridges between action and research on commons as a form 
of governance, production, and horizon of socio-political 
transformation.&quot;
