“Commons and Public Partnership” Workshop in Brussels

This event is a part of our Reclaim the Commons project, which this year aspires to provide relevant insights to the relation between the commons and policy, and the impact of the commons as a governance model on the public services.

Themes of the Workshop:

How do we build relationships between the collective initiatives, which focus on the new transitions around the commons, and the public authorities? What places are the commons claiming and how are sharing and diversity perceived by the public authorities? And how to move forward by overcoming obstacles and building new models? These questions will be addressed during the workshop with the help of our speakers:

• Jean-Claude Englebert, First alderman in charge of urban planning and communal properties in Forest, Brussels;
• Loïc Géronnez, Commons Josaphat, Brussels.

Time and Location: Wednesday, the 29th of June, from 11h00 to 13h00, at the premises of Etopia in Brussels (Place des barricades, 1 – 4è étage).
