The COMMUNIA Thematic Network aims at becoming a European point of reference for theoretical analysis and strategic policy discussion of existing and emerging issues concerning the public domain in the digital environment – as well as related topics, including, but not limited to, alternative forms of licensing for creative material; open access to scientific publications and research results; management of works whose authors are unknown (i.e. orphan works).
Metamorphosis Foundation is a founding member of the COMMUNIA Thematic Network, consisting of 51 members from Europe and beyond (including USA and Brasil).
COMMUNIA started its activities on 1 September 2007.
