This is an opportunity for an experiment in \"Cosmolocal\" Chiang Mai. \n\nCosmolocal is an emerging framework developed by Michel Bauwens to help conceptualise and organise in ways that encourage global solidarity, networks, and identity while emphasize deep and meaningful local connections and ties. \n\nCosmolocal Chiang Mai is about stewarding interactions between local and global communities (web3 & beyond) towards:\n\n- local residents and communities in Chiang Mai benefit from the influx of people and and the resources, cultures, and ideas they bring.\n\n- global communities benefit from local ideas, narratives, and cultures.\n\n- A circular flow of ideas and value that creates meaningful relationships that adds to the Chiang Mai commons. \n\nCosmolocal can be an imaginary that goes beyond the binary of global or local. It is translocal at the scale of the cosmos.  \n\nSome of the questions we seek to explore:\n\nHow can Chiang Mai can meaningfully benefit from the knowledge and resources networks of Web3 communities, and how Chiang Mai’s local communities and knowledge systems can help shape global Web3 narratives and projects? \n\nHow do we move away from extraction and orient towards sharing and abundance? \n\n\nProposed Activities\n•\tCosmolocal futures of Chiang Mai workshop on September 8, 2024 \n•\tCreating a tech coordination layer to allow for global and local groups to connect\n•\tFacilitate gatherings in Chiang Mai: retreats, skill shares and training, talks and workshops \n•\tCommission research in the form of case studies to understand cosmolocal dynamics in Chiang Mai and other comparative places in southeast asia and globally. \n\n", "logoImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "digi-cnx"}
