Educational Commons

The spreading paradigm of the ‘commons’ is an alternative value and action system, a different way of building and living our cosmos, which nourishes democratic ideals, egalitarianism, creativity and sustainable relations between humans and nature (Bauwens, Kostakis and Pazaitis, 2019). In education as a commons, the process of learning, knowledge transmission and acquisition, and the modes of governing this process are managed and co-constructed by the entire educational community -teachers, students and, likely, their families, on terms of participation, openness, diversity and flatter hierarchies.
