The 4th Communia Workshop will take place in Zurich at the Swiss
Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) on Friday the 23rd of January
2009, and a special event organized by Creative Commons will take place in the Walchetum gallery.
The Workshop is dedicated to discussing the 1st year review of the Communia project and planning our future actions. In both plenary and parallel sessions, we will also work on the Working Group projects and initiatives – including but not limited to: map the public domain, write a new mission statement for Communia, formulate specific policy statements, organize public domain day, etc.
Following the Communia workshop, Creative Commons Switzerland is organizing the "Creative Commons Showcases – Movies, Design and Music under free licenses". During the presentation, the attendants will be able to explore why these licenses are important and what possibilities they offer. Some of the most successful European projects will be presented.
