It will take place july 10-14 in Utrecht, the Netherlands, and will host a few hundreds of commons connaisseurs.</div><div><br></div><div>The call for academic papers has been closed, but there is still plenty of opportunity to propose <b>practitioner’s labs</b>! A few have been published yet, and they are open to contributors.</div><div><br></div><div>I think this biennale is a great opportunity to both publicize and scrutinize our work. The conference will be teeming with commons scholars and practitioners. We need to have some conversations on the applications of ‘commons thinking’ on specific terrains. For one, it would (I think) be unwise to be too generic or loose in the way we consider the commons, so some critical discussions may well benefit our work. Second, we can also use the biennale to further the policy frontier.</div><div><br></div><div>Looking forward to working further with you all!</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Socrates</div><div><br></div><div>@Soc_sch</div><div><a href="http://www.socrates.nu" target="_blank">www.socrates.nu</a> </div></div></div><br><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>Check out the Commons Transition Plan here at: <a href="http://commonstransition.org" target="_blank">http://commonstransition.org</a> </div><div><br></div>P2P Foundation: <a href="http://p2pfoundation.net" target="_blank">http://p2pfoundation.net</a> - <a href="http://blog.p2pfoundation.net" target="_blank">http://blog.p2pfoundation.net</a> <br><br><a href="http://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/p2p-foundation" target="_blank"></a>Updates: <a href="http://twitter.com/mbauwens" target="_blank">http://twitter.com/mbauwens</a>; <a href="http://www.facebook.com/mbauwens" target="_blank">http://www.facebook.com/mbauwens</a><br><br>#82 on the (En)Rich list: <a href="http://enrichlist.org/the-complete-list/" target="_blank">http://enrichlist.org/the-complete-list/</a> <br></div></div></div></div>
