IN THE WORLD OF INNOVATION, EACH INITIATIVE IS TRYING TO ANSWER A USAGE NOT YET SATISFIED
BUT EACH INITIATIVE DOESN'T KNOW THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF OTHER INITIATIVES TRYING TO ANSWER THIS USAGE !
Is starting then the game of concurrence, even if those usages are answering social challenges which could be developped in a "common" way...
What we do is
To list "Usages" : For example,which project is developing "commons" aroung the carpooling usage?
And to list in the world who is developing projects trying to anwser this usage. A "commons" self-evaluation helps us in finding the most interesting "commons" where we all should focus our attention to help them improving their functioning
Common self-evaluation is done with 10 criteria Each criteria description gets link to the tools used by the common
Encommuns.org make transparent all "business around commons"
The idea is to help busineses in gaining confidence with commons and commons to get retributed when the busineses use them
This will also help us in identifying all the busineses working in a respectful way with some commons
