<div dir="ltr">Hi Christian,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for the reminder to our community. We actually were already discussing this after seeing your reminder email. I unfortunately can't make it, but we <b>are hoping that someone from our European group can</b>. In my view, the connection between our GeoForAll urban analytics thematic effort, and the community that will be at your IASC conference is a very important one to make.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for the reminder and all the best in your conference!</div><div><br></div><div>Charlie</div><div><br></div><div>P.S. Let's keep this connection going, and plan to somehow have an 'Urban Commons' track in the Global IASC conference in Utrecht, Netherlands in 2017 [1]! I can envision some technology-related workshop and/or set of panels around open geographic science 'Smart City' commons approaches. </div><div><br></div><div>[1] <a href="http://www.iasc2017.org/">http://www.iasc2017.org/</a></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Aug 9, 2015 at 4:53 AM, <a href="mailto:ciaione@luiss.it">ciaione@luiss.it</a> <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:christian.iaione@gmail.com" target="_blank">christian.iaione@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word">Dear Charles, dear all, <div>the deadline for the 1st IASC Conference on Urban Commons is fast approaching.

I'm not sure who is on the urbanscience listserv that was established. Should we use that instead Patrick or Chris?</div><div><br></div><div>2) There is a call for abstracts for a conference in Italy in Novemeber on the City as a Commons [1]. Our work might not fit exactly in this, but for example, Volunteer Geographic Information for Urban is one example of where 'commons' activity occurs in our work. I encourage people on this list to look at the call and consider submitting something. What we are trying to do, in my view, is develop data and technology 'commons' for urban policy and management.</div><div><br></div><div>3) Note, the above is a thematic conference of the broader Interational Association for the Study of the Commons [2]. In an effort to build our community, over the next few years, I am hoping to make a strong connection between GeoForAll and OSGeo and IASC... there are many researchers and educators who attend IASC conferences (many study natural resource commons '-- landcover, water, irrigation systems, fisheries) and they need GIS and many come from developing world contexts. I'm hoping we can plan to have some GIS workshops at the next global IASC conference in July 2017 in Utrecht, Netherlands. Let me know if you have any interest in that idea. </div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Charlie</div><div><br></div><div>[1] <a href="http://www.labgov.it/urbancommons" target="_blank">http://www.labgov.it/urbancommons</a></div><div>[2] <a href="http://www.iasc-commons.org/" target="_blank">http://www.iasc-commons.org/</a><br></div></div></div></div></div>
