Podcasts about sharing cities

When it comes to resource management, there are two dominant forces that exert tremendous influence on who gets what: the market and the state. Sometimes these two entities compete or conflict. Other times they collaborate, and even conspire—to the great detriment of communities. Either can result in environmental exploitation, extreme inequality or poverty, erasure of culture and place, and invite an alienation that is generated by people having limited say in what happens to their communities.   Yet there remains a resource management system whose history runs deeper than either the market or the state—and that is the commons. Distinguished by its clearly demarcated membership, it is fiercely democratic and practices a more locally-oriented governance regime. A given resource is apportioned and stewarded by members according to norms they determine within their community. For the most part, neither the market nor the state are expected or encouraged to intervene. One is either a contributing member of the commons or they are not.   But if commons have such a rich heritage, then why have they become less prevalent in the United States and in what are considered "developed countries"?   Jeffrey Howard speaks with Neal Gorenflo. He is the executive director of Shareable, an award-winning nonprofit news outlet, action network, and consultancy focused on the latest innovations in resource sharing, the commons, and the solidarity economy. He is also the author of Sharing Cities: Activating the Urban Commons (2018). In addition to the state and the market, he proposes the commons as a way to foster small-scale experiments to see what works best in any given community. This pragmatic approach to solutions is geared toward addressing needs more than trying to satisfy any particular ideology. As the saying goes, ideologies divide us, while needs unify us.   Now, looking further into the twenty-first century, what would it take for the commons to become a prevailing paradigm for resource management? What does a Sharing Cities approach to urban development look like? And what prevents a commons from being co-opted or captured by market or state forces?   Show Notes: A Year of Living Locally by Neal Gorenflo (2020) Sharing Cities: Activating the Urban Commons by Neal Gorenflo (2018) Think Like a Commoner: A Short Introduction to the Life of the Commons by David Bollier (2014) Shareable Ep. 11 A Small Farm Future w/ Chris Smaje (2021) Ep. 8 Embracing Subsistence Agriculture During the Collapse of Industrial Capitalism w/ Ashley Colby (2021) Ep. 3 Placemaking and the Benefits of Local Scale w/ Jaime Izurieta (2020) "Coops in Spain's Basque Region Soften Capitalism's Rough Edges" by Peter S.

On this week's episode of EG's We're Still Here podcast host Emily Wright is once again joined by EG editor Sam McClary for a round-up of this week's top news and analysis. And what a week it has been. Landlord British Land announced that more than £1.1bn has been wiped off the overall value of its portfolio as coronavirus disruption continues to put retailers under pressure and then the news broke that Hammerson boss David Atkins is to set down. Tune in to hear more and to find out about a fresh EG initiative launched this week. Uninspired by government's plans for post-pandemic offices, we have launched a competition to find out how the real estate sector would create workplace, retail or leisure experiences that enable interaction, collaboration and innovation while maintaining government guidelines. Also this week we speak to Nathan Pierce, programme director for Sharing Cities at the Greater London Authority. He revealed how cities including London, Milan and Lisbon are working together to create smart solutions that can be adapted to address the current issues we are all facing as a result of the pandemic.

Neal Gorenflo (@gorenflo) is the co-founder of Shareable, an award-winning news, action, connection hub for the grassroots sharing transformation.Neal’s worked with startups like P2P asset sharing platform Moogul.com, an online DVD exchange, a spinout of Cisco’s corporate asset sharing platform, and Divvy.com. He co-organized The Abundance League monthly salons in SF between 2005 and 2010, consulted with Institute for the Future, Stanford, Lowe’s, and has been featured by The Today Show, NBC Nightly News, CBS Sunday Morning, Wired and Fast Company and appeared at SXSW, Sustainable Brands, and SOCAP.He is co-editor of the books Share or Die: Voices of The Get Lost Generation in the Age of Crisis and Policies for Shareable Cities, the first sharing economy policy guide and is an adviser to governments and NGO initiatives.In today’s episode we discuss:- How US zoning policies institutionalized racism- What participatory budgeting can do for revitalizing civic life- Why the capitalism experiment of the free market failed- The power of local networks and connections- How we should rethink cities and urban planning- Why Neal isn’t that excited about driverless cars- The huge problem with America’s suburbs system- Why the gig economy is eroding our future- How Neal views the future of government- Why blockchain isn’t the answer to our problems- What libertarianism gets massively wrong- Why big tech is the most dangerous force today- How hundreds of cities are saving the world through sharing- Why Airbnb and Uber aren’t sharing companies at all

The sharing economy is a phenomenon. But what is it exactly? The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission says it “connects consumers to people who have products or services to sell, hire or lease via an online platform.” And “It includes services such as Airbnb and Uber.” But the folk at the heart of the sharing economy call that commerce – and in some cases, mere extensions of the current extractive economy that is driving us into multiple crises. Last year Anthony hosted the launch of a brilliant new book produced by Shareable. Shareable is an award-winning, non-profit, global hub of news, action and connection for the sharing transformation. It calls this transformation “a movement of movements, emerging from the grassroots, to solve today's biggest challenges”, from poverty to global warming – the challenges that old, top-down institutions are failing to address. The book is called ‘Sharing Cities: Activating the Urban Commons', a how-to guide showcasing over 100 sharing-related case studies and model policies from more than 80 cities. “From community composting to makerspaces, repair cafés and platform co-operatives, people are coming together in cities everywhere to develop solutions for the common good. They show that sharing can lead everyone to have more, together.” Leading the conversation is the Australian editor of Shareable, Director of Social Surplus, and Research Fellow at the Monash Sustainable Development Institute, Darren Sharp, with a 10-minute keynote. Then we're joined by special guests: - Lizette Salmon, a pioneering figure in the Repair Café movement, founding coordinator of Albury-Wodonga's popular Repair Café, and Coordinator of WATCH (Wodonga Albury Towards Climate Health). - Dr Jose Ramos, co-founder of the Footscray Maker Lab, Director of Action Foresight, and fellow founding board member with Darren of the growing New Economy Network Australia. Their 5-minute responses are followed by audience Q&A, all taking place at the 2018 National Sustainable Living Festival. Incidentally, some of the endorsements from around the world for the book ‘Sharing Cities' are recommended reading in themselves: “Once again, Shareable shows how we can retrieve the very best features of urban life — consciously, constructively, and creatively.” - Douglas Rushkoff, author of “Throwing Rocks at the Google Bus: How Growth Became the Enemy of Prosperity” and host of the Team Human podcast (Douglas features on podcast #041) Theme music: The System, by the Public Opinion Afro Orchestra.

A Milano è stato da poco inaugurato il secondo condominio reso efficiente grazie al progetto europeo “Sharing Cities”, in via Bernardino Verro 78 b/c.Ai residenti è stato consegnato il manuale “Vivere bene in una casa efficiente”, realizzato da Teicos Group e Legambiente Lombardia con il contributo del progetto Sharing Cities.Si tratta di uno strumento per semplificare la comunicazione più tecnica su come gestire la quotidianità in una casa riqualificata per poterne ottimizzare al massimo le prestazioni, con l’obiettivo di:•informare l’utente sulla corretta gestione di un’abitazione evidenziando le differenze tra la situazione prima e dopo l’intervento;•descrivere i benefici generali derivanti dagli interventi di isolamento termico delle pareti e delle coperture;•indicare i comportamenti da tenere per valorizzare gli interventi realizzati, evitando consumi non necessari ai fini del benessere domestico.Il manuale serve a far capire in che modo modificare alcuni comportamenti e consuetudini, acquisiti prima della riqualificazione. È, infatti, importante acquisire una piena consapevolezza delle nuove prestazioni che l’intervento conferisce all’edificio, anche per sfruttarne in pieno le potenzialità.Sul condominio di via Bernardino Verro a Milano, si è agito su murature e impianti condominiali. Ma ulteriori miglioramenti possono essere conseguiti agendo sulle parti private e, soprattutto, con comportamenti appropriati: dalla regolazione della temperatura nei locali, al ricambio d’aria, alle tante piccole attenzioni che consentono di risparmiare energia e, in molti casi, di prevenire problemi di salubrità dell’ambiente domestico.Ascolta l'audio per avere info maggiori su questo argomento.

Jessica McVay is joined by Karhoo's Chief Operating Officer Michael Galvin, Programme Director of Sharing Cities Nathan Pierce and Urban DNA Partner Graham Colclough to discuss how data can be used to create the cities of the future. The panel discuss how the public and private sector should collaborate (1:22), how data can benefit citizens (13:20), how it can improve government (17:40), what is being done to create new data-driven value for the public (21:25), the barriers to using data in some cities (24:26) and the one change they would make to how our cities are being run (28:18). They then close out the show by choosing their favourite song about data (29:20). This podcast was brought to you by Higginson Strategy, the London based communications agency that works with organisations that do good.

Playing for Team Human today is Neal Gorenflo from Shareable.net. Neal joins Douglas to spread the word about Shareable’s latest resource, Sharing Cities: Activating the Urban Commons. Sharing Cities is an inspiring collection of 137 case studies and policies across a wide spectrum of issues that show how empowered communities are building citizen-run, democratic solutions using commons thinking.Whether it be the grassroots artist organization Club Cultural Matienzo (CCM) that formed in Buenos Aires to build a cultural commons for the local arts scene in wake of a tragic nightclub fire, or land stewardship activists in Brooklyn reclaiming public space for urban farming and community gardening, Sharing Cities is filled with projects and policies ready to replicated and implemented in your community.You can Contribute to Shareable for a hard copy or E-Book copy, or download a free pdf of Sharing Cities from Shareable.net:https://www.shareable.net/contribute (the free PDF is bottom right on this page)An except from Neal Gorenflo’s introduction to Sharing Cities:With the backdrop of worsening income inequality, climate change, and fiscal challenges, the growth of self-organized, democratic, and inclusive means for city dwellers to meet their own needs by sharing resources couldn’t be more relevant. These cases and policies taken together offer a new vision for cities that puts people – not the market, technology, or government – at the center, where they belong. More than that, the book represents a claim on the city run by people – a claim increasingly being made by city-residents the world over. This book was written for a broad audience, but may find special resonance with those who share this people-first vision of cities and want to act on it. Written by a team of 15 fellows with contributions from 18 organizations around the world, “Sharing Cities: Activating the Urban Commons” not only witnesses a movement, but is a practical reference guide for community-based solutions to a range of challenges cities face such as affordable housing, sustainable mobility, and more.Today’s show featured intro and outro music thanks to Fugazi and Dischord Records.
