Dear all, we are organising a "Workshop on community networking
infrastructures"

Tomorrow Friday 17 9:30-17:00 CEST

Public administrations, citizenship and enterprises are the three key
players for the construction and management of any commons
infrastructure. This workshop will discuss how they can strengthen ties
among these three actors to optimize a specific case of these
infrastructures, community networks. We will analyse tools ranging from
governance strategies to implementation at deployment and operation
level, paying special attention to the optical fibre, a key technology for
achieving the coverage and penetration targets of the European
Digital Agenda. Based on the experience and the work done so far, the
conference has two main objectives: expand knowledge about this type of
collaboration and identify specific lines of action to make them more
efficient in the future. With the ambition to achieve an overall
analysis, these challenges are faced successively from the point of view of
governance, regulation, and its implementation, dedicating to each
block a total of one and half hour. To stimulate discussion and alleviate
as many doubts as possible, each block consists of a panel of
an hour and a  half an hour open round of comments, followed by a pause. A
round table will be a short presentation by each speaker and then a
debate between the speakers.
