toolkit design workshops participatory processes

The Toolkit for the Homes of Commons is a policy toolbox for active cultural communities in Europe to become “Homes of Commons” that are able to: host and support open and heterogeneous movements of people and cultural workers that make knowledge, means of production and political spaces accessible to the community at large Host and support the development proposals for new policies and institutional arrangements at both local and EU level.

The project lasted one year involving 11 participating entities from all over Europe. The CCSC consortium focused on a participatory process to create a policy toolkit defined from communities’ perspectives.

How it works

In order to improve access to the toolkit, I designed an auto-assessment tool. This instrument is intended to be used by communities or organisations so that they can assess themselves on their development according to the 11 themes of the toolkit. The auto-assessment tool is designed not only as a preliminary work to the action, but already as a form of action towards prototyping the  “Homes of Commons”.
