19.03. 19:00-21:00 Educating the Commons and Commoning Education
Gregoire Rousseau and Nora Sternfeld in dialogue

All over the world, education – which could be understood as a universal right and public good – is facing processes of economization and privatization. Technology – which could be understood as a common means of production, collaboratively developed – is taken away from the public and put into corporate hands. This conversation investigates the question of shared and common knowledge from the perspectives of an educator and an engineer, respectively.
