Commoning Of The City

This session will look at some urban Commoning projects, how they set up and on what commoning principles, and consider how they can be up- scaled so as to challenge the power of the dominant landowners in the city. There will be discussion about overcoming barriers to commoning related to land access and governance. We will consider how the food growing projects practising commoning can link more closely with housing and environmental campaigners to build a movement that can effectively turn our cities into Commons- for social, ecological and food justice. This session will include voices from Southwark Community Planning Network and Glasgow Food Growing Network.
