Fwd: [CC-global-network-council] Celebrating CC’s 20th Anniversary
Subhashish
From: Nate Angell
During 2021–2022, CC has been celebrating the 20th anniversary of our founding in 2001 and the first release of the CC licenses in 2002, successfully concluding an ambitious fundraising campaign to support programs like Open Culture, Open Climate, and Open Education, and to help ensure CC’s ongoing sustainability.
In November 2022, CC will bring the 20th anniversary celebration to an official close with both online and in-person activities. The CC Global Network and our broader community are at the heart of CC’s work to support better sharing for an open commons, so we are inviting you to be a part of marking this milestone. There are three ways you can join the celebration — pick one or all three!
Mark the anniversary locally with a #20CC Anniversary US$500 Grant to support a local event, activity, or project to celebrate CC’s past 20 years and our shared future. Requirements: Grant projects should have a regional focus, be clearly supported by your local CC chapter, and coordinated by one person acting as lead. See grant program details >
Don’t have time for a grant? No problem! Share a digital artifact that showcases your community’s past or future work to build the open commons. CC HQ will share accepted artifacts with the world to illustrate the variety of activities and points of view that represent the CCGN and CC community. Requirements: All artifacts must be shared with CC licenses or CC0 public domain dedications and demonstrate CC’s better sharing values. Describe your artifact >
Attend a global anniversary event:
