So are you committed to this?
I’d read the post but didn’t know what I could contribute at the moment…
So many ideas and event plans in Matera! I just think that it will become easier to involve Edgeryders once we know something is definitely going to happen. Great lead, do you need anything from me?
Caring for commons is still a generic theme for Futurespotters, and main conversations that arose within it are:
- access to education as a commons - especially in Egypt - which would easily couple well with VA; focus is on both affordable+ quality education, especially to address dropout from formal schooling due to its inacessibility -> festival wise, someone could curate a list of educational videos for inspiring new initiatives
- urban commons / the city as a common : avoiding public spaces to be hijacked or privatised (occupying & camping to save parks), and enabling group rights (eg pedestrians; or cyclists); also mapping sites to storytell change over time; -> festival wise, showing interviews with futurespotters in Tbilisi, Yerevan
