<pre>*On June 1st, hosted by Isabella Adinolfi in cooperation with Commons <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>Network,*civil society considers Internet, copyright, health and climate <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>in EU knowledge policy from a commons perspective. From 11.30 – 13.00 <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>at the Altiero Spinelli Building – Seven floor – Room 7H1.<u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre><u></u> <u></u></pre>
<pre>The commons perspective stresses the democratic governance of knowledge <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>as it identifies knowledge as a shared resource that is a collective <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>responsibility. It emphasizes equitable access to knowledge resources <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>such as health-care and education, the urgent need to <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>prioritize ecological sustainability in knowledge policy and the <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>promotion of an*open and democratic Internet.<u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre><u></u> <u></u></pre>
<pre>In late 2015 the Commons Network published the <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>paper:The EU and the Commons: A Commons Approach to European Knowledge Policy. <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre><a href="http://commonsnetwork.eu/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/A-Commons-Approach-to-European-Knowledge-Policy.pdf" target="_blank"><http://commonsnetwork.eu/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/A-Commons-Approach-to-European-Knowledge-Policy.pdf></a> It <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>outlines the compelling logic, benefits and ethics of a commons approach <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>to knowledge, with an emphasis on how that could improve policy in <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>certain areas such as health, the environment, science and culture, and <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>the Internet.<u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre><u></u> <u></u></pre>
<pre>We would now like to engage in a conversation with experts working in <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>the various fields discussed, during an expert meeting in the European <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>Parliament. This conversation will allow us to assess the usefulness and <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>applicability of the commons perspective in policy making on knowledge, <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>and how to concretely move forward in protecting and managing common goods.<u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre><u></u> <u></u></pre>
<pre>We shall be considering the EU policy context of the digital Single <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>Market strategy, copyright reform, climate policy, internet and <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>telecommunications governance discussions and the implementation of EU <u></u><u></u></pre>
<pre>research and innovation programmes.<u></u><u></u></pre>
