Co-Making Matters: Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration and Commons-Based Learning in Urban Environments
Together with the School of Commons and the Cohort 2024, Co-Making Matters aims to investigate how commons-based learning principles and methodologies can enhance cross-disciplinary cooperation in urban environments, fostering creativity and shared knowledge. Through collaborations, Co-Making Matters intends to explore how temporary interventions and site-specific projects can create a sense of community and facilitate knowledge-sharing in diverse urban landscapes, with a focus on inclusivity.
Initially we plan:
Collaborative Workshops: Conduct hands-on, collaborative workshops that engage participants in cross-disciplinary activities. These sessions will provide practical insights into the implementation of commons-based learning principles in urban settings.
Participatory Mapping: Utilize participatory mapping techniques to document urban spaces and collaborative initiatives. This method aims to identify patterns and opportunities for knowledge-sharing, emphasizing the unique characteristics of different urban landscapes.
Distributing the existing knowledge in different platforms: Implement online tools to facilitate global participation and collaboration. By overcoming geographical constraints, virtual platforms will enhance the accessibility of our initiatives, fostering a diverse and inclusive community.
