Creating Commons


  • About Us

    The Creating Commons platform is a social network and community development framework that seeks to more effectively align our actions and resources toward goals we all share in common. By adapting a self-organizing and open format, the commons seeks to empower everyday people to engage with the forces affecting their own lives – rather than waiting for solutions from the top. By contributing to our common goals, individuals can gain support for their own personal aspirations – all while making real-world impacts and collective progress.
