General session of the Commons Lab workgroups, where we will discuss the tension between the public-state and its relation with the commons.

Tides of all colors are on the street: green (education), white (health professionals), orange (social services). Responding to the current budget cuts and privatization policies, the public sector is mobilizing to save universal access to basic services for social life. This is a passionate defense that has gone beyond professionals to citizens, calling out to invert the tendency of an aversion of the public domain. 

Presentation of the current groups of the Commons Lab along with new additions.

The purpose of the call is to present current Commons Lab working groups and welcome new proposals that feature the Commons at the forefront and consider the Lab as a good context for their development incorporating collaborators.

The sixth meeting of the 15M.cc workgroup –a transmedia, collaborative, copyleft and non profit project on the 15M movement– intends to facilitate as many narrations as possible concerning the citizen movement born on May 15th 2011 in Spain. This initiative, in time, has become an umbrella for projects in constant evolution. For this reason, 15M.cc has remained a beta version.

7 pm: Screening the project’s documentary: 15M: Excelente Revulsivo. Importante 

Presentation and debate by Cristina Sánchez-Carretero, professor of Anthropology at the Institute of Patrimony Sciences in Santiago de Compostela around the concept of memory as patrimony, its creation, dissemination and preservation.

After five years of activity in the Commons Lab, a time in which we have done research and reflected on the quality and importance of the commons, we propose that, for the next meeting, we collectively think about the Lab, looking back in time (What has been done and gazing into the future (What needs to be done) as well as taking into account the workings on inside (the projects carried out by the Lab) and on outside (the experiences and people with whom we want to engage), without losing sight of the crisis we are facing.
