objective

CLOUDS creates a space of collective development & acts as an intervention that re-examines the notions of public space.
Our basic aim is the co-operative development and provision of the infrastructure necessary for mobilizing new ideas, social & cultural activities.
A commitment that will strengthen citizens' capacity for self-organization and their sense of belonging to the city.
By developing a network of actors that is planning and documenting social and cultural actions, the project will bridge the gap between initiatives, communities and citizens, making Commoning Culture accessible to all.
Our vision is to reclaim and re-establish quality in urban space, promote solidarity and open dialogue.
We hope that CLOUDS will be a step further to achieve our goals of creating
permanent centers for persistent practices of political, social and artistic freedom.
