What if knowledge (again) becomes a common good? How can the university serve commoners, citizens and activists with such knowledge? In Amsterdam, how can we finally start experimenting on a large scale with commons as real, ecologically responsible and humane alternatives to privatization, gentrification or bureaucratisation? And when does the UvA, according to citizens, students, activists, teachers, commoners and researchers, actually meet the conditions that this social transformation entails?
To answer these questions you are invited to the conference 'Commoning in and around the UvA' by Commoning UvA and Commoning Meta Amsterdam on February 15th. On this day, UvA students and teachers will come together with organized citizens and activists from the city to define the role of the UvA in the city and map opportunities for concrete cooperation.
15 February from 13.30 to 18.00 Location: Doelenzaal, University Library Singel 425, 1012 WP, Amsterdam
