About this call
The 21st IASC Biennial Conference brings together scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and communities around the theme “Centering the Commons: Resilience, Resistance, and Collective Action.” It sought proposals for panels, roundtables, workshops, and tutorials across its commons-related themes, Methods Lab, and Practitioners’ Lab. The conference particularly encouraged cross-disciplinary contributions, voices from the Global South, and connections between theory and lived experience in commons governance.
