The Best Practices Guide for Digital Commons – Government Relations

The Digital Commons Policy Council (DCPC) and The News and Media Research Centre (N&MRC) published this guide to provide policymakers and public service officials with best practices to support digital commons projects.

This guide demonstrates us how adopting digital commons can save governments money, increase interoperability for public services and digital infrastructure, and enhance a nation’s digital sovereignty by reducing its dependence on Big Tech proprietary products, so that technical decisions are based on local laws, norms and values.

It matches fluidly with our own research regarding the integration of federated social media platforms in e.g. European institutions. Reach out in case you want to know more.
