<br>
Digital Do It Yourself (DiDIY) is a new socio-technological phenomenon,<br>
centered around digital devices that support, often through open online<br>
communities, the convergence of "atoms" and "bits".<br>
<br>
The DiDIY Research Project [1], which addresses the Horizon 2020 call<br>
for a "Human-centric Digital Age", is studying how DiDIY and the<br>
increasing social adoption of ABC devices are:<br>
<br>
* reshaping organization, work, education, research and creative design<br>
* impacting on creative society,<br>
* influencing legal systems,<br>
* changing ethics<br>
<br>
The Free Knowledge Institute (FKI) is one of the seven partners of the<br>
international Consortium [2], that will carry on this research, whose<br>
purpose is to produce well-grounded models and guidelines to support<br>
both education and policy making on DiDIY.<br>
<br>
FKI, which participates mostly with W. Tebbens and M. Fioretti, will<br>
lead the Project Work Packages 6 and 8, whose subjects are:<br>
<br>
WP6: Exploring the impact of DiDIY on laws, rights and responsibilities [3]<br>
WP8: Dissemination, future roadmap and sustainability [4]<br>
<br>
and participate, to various degrees, in all the other Work Packages of<br>
the Project. Part of the work will consist of developing and offering,<br>
within the Project, online courses and other open educational resources,<br>
building on the experience of the Free Technology Academy [5].<br>
