IASC 2021 Knowledge Commons Virtual Conference
https://2021knowledge.iasc-commons.org/

Aims & Scope

The virtual conference, a 3-day meeting with pre-recorded and live
events, will address problems defined by knowledge systems, including
innovation spaces, digital resources like Wikipedia and Stack exchange,
open-source software development, the future of science and education,
the archival of existing knowledge, cultural commons and citizen science.
What are the opportunities (low costs of sharing and reproduction,
collaboration, access) and challenges (privacy, security, freeriding,
inequality, incentives, manipulation, artificial intelligence biases,
exclusion, trust)?

We anticipate four overarching themes:

Classic Knowledge Commons and Practices
Technologies, Infrastructure and social systems supporting the
development of Knowledge Commons
General Knowledge Commons Issues
COVID-19 Related Knowledge Commons

When you submit your abstracts we ask for a list of keywords. During the
conference you can create your “playlist” of presentations and sessions
based on the keywords.

We welcome different kinds of contributions:
Proposals for webinars
Prerecorded talks
