LUISS LIBERA UNIVERSITA INTERNAZIONALE DEGLI STUDI SOCIALI GUIDO CARLI

LUISS is a Laboratory for the Governance of the commons, an international applied-research laboratory and a partnership between LUISS University in Rome and Fordham University in New York, which is carrying on the idea of a “collaborative city”, or CO-city, in several cities in Italy and all over the world. The research-action project consists in creating and/or accompanying the creation and diffusion of collaborative spaces within the city: the “collaboratories”, new places/institutions where new forms of enterprises where open, collaborative and digital production and manifacturing are generated, and where at the same time the policies needed in order to enable those new forms of economy are designed. During the process, LUISS applies the principles and methodologies of 2009 Nobel Prize for Economy, Elinor Ostrom.
