We are glad to announce that in 2015 CommonsFest will run events both in Athens and in Heraklion. Anyone interested in contributing to the organizing of the next Festival and participate in practice in the commoners’ community, may contact us here.

In the meantime, you can read our 2014 report here and our financial report here.

We also started a wiki here in order to record our experience from organizing CommonsFest, so that we share all the information with people who plan to organize similar events, after all we believe that together we can make something even better.
