Abstract | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Please join this session if you are interested in co-creating another world. We will start with a few reminders of what we mean by libre knowledge and the challenges we face in the current (legal) environment, and the importance of access to knowledge in co-creation of an alternative future. We then take a turn into another world, the world of those who do not have access to all this "free" knowledge and discuss principles and digital inclusion.
