Commoning Practices in Education for Social Inclusion
International Conference, COMPRA
COMPRA is organizing an international conference to bring together researchers, practitioners, teachers, university students, municipalities, civil society organizations, activists, journalists, and policy-makers to present commoning practices resulting from ongoing projects on social inclusion, youth, childhood, and education, and to discuss the potentiality of a commons-based education to enhance inclusion, and to inform political decision-making processes.
The conference intends to discuss values and practices of commons in the field of formal, non-formal and informal education, and also to present innovative methodologies and tools for the development of a commons-based educational environment helping children and young people to act as commoners.
