The Commons as a Laboratory for Radical Cooperation

This event will put solid ground under the feet of Occupy campaigners and supporters, or anybody working for social change, who want to increase their effectiveness in cooperation, outreach, and movement building.

It will be facilitated by Leo Burke, a professor at the University of Notre Dame, who established there a Global Commons Initiative. He will offer introduce some foundational concepts about the commons, including characteristics of successful commons.

We will then discuss the attributes of radical cooperation and engage in a spirited dialogue on how this can be relevant for the Occupy Movement.

Donation to support the ongoing campaign of the School of Commoning for commons education and social renewal is warmly welcomed.
