Program
This year 2017 is the year of the regulations of the collaborative economy: we will discuss with representatives of the European Parliament, the Generalitat of Catalonia and the Barcelona City Council about which policies could support the commons, and we will define guidelines for cities. We will reflect with Yochai Benkler, expert in digital commons, on the deep transformations underway, as well as define strategies of passing from an oligarchical economy to open social economy. We will present resources for entrepreneurship, economic models and technologies for the scalability of initiatives, and co-design solutions for city challenges, regarding housing, care, precarity and exclusion.
27 & 28 of June (Tuesday and Wednesday) in Barcelona Activa (c/ Llacuna 162-164) from 9am to 7pm every day, and final party at 28th (7:30pm) at La T (Media-TIC building, Roc Boronat 127, 8th floor). Registration is open and free. There will be translation and videostreaming from the web.
