SoC Public Programme Autumn/ Winter 2023-2024

In engaging with the world around us to lay the foundations for learning together and co-creating spaces, networks, and communities of belonging and support–the SoC programme aims to promote a broad, integrative understanding of knowledge, heavily defined by our community. Through experimentation, dialogue and process, we focus on matters surrounding the production and mediation of knowledge with a focus on self-organized practices and methods for knowledge decentralization.

There are 12 events coming up in October – February, spanning Public Teaching Sessions from the current Cohort, as well as Alumn* events and our annual Learning Commons open conversation. Many of these free events take place on online, and we’d love to see you there, whether you’ve participated in the School of Commons before, or you’re just curious.
