Communities for Future curates a knowledge commons on community-led action on sustainability and climate change. This knowledge commons is freely available for consultation, and open to contributions from anyone willing to adhere to an agreed set of standards of rigour and presentation, and adhere to a common set of values. The main aim of the knowledge commons is to make the existing knowledge base on community action visible and accessible, and encourage co-creation and sharing of knowledge on the part of researchers, advocates, activists working on the ground, and all others somehow involved in community-led action. In doing so, it seeks to move beyond individualised and proprietary forms of knowledge production dominated solely by elite academic institutions and create inclusive alternatives based on sharing, cooperation and solidarity.
