Commoning the Future: Video Documentary

The documentary “Commoning the Future” is a 5 year review of the U!REKA Lab: Urban Commons, an international and interdisciplinary teaching and research project of the U!REKA European University partners Amsterdam UAS, HOGENT, Frankfurt UAS, Metropolia Helsinki, IPL Lisbon and VSB Ostrava and Ostrava University. The Lab has been focussing intensively on urban commons in theory and practice since 2019. In an innovative blended-learning environment, students and lecturers examine various commons initiatives in the cities, such as communal housing projects, energy collectives, self-managed cultural projects, common kitchen initiatives or urban gardens. We organise the U!R Commons Lectures, exhibitions, summer schools, short-term mobilities, such as Erasmus+ BIPs as well as the knowledge platform: http://urcommons.eu
