Dear all: The annual conference of the Centre for Internet and Society of the CNRS is taking place on September 25 and 26, 2025. As part of this hybrid conference, we are organizing on this Thursday 25th a panel in English on "Regulation for and of the Digital Commons", which may be of interest to members on this mailing list. A description of the panel is below: *Panel 5: Regulation for and of the digital commons* *Organised by*: Ramya Chandrasekhar (CIS-CNRS), Sébastien Shulz (CIS-CNRS) and Sébastien Broca (CEMTI-Paris 8) for the CIS-CNRS research group on Politics of the Digital Commons *Speakers*: Melanie Dulong de Rosnay (CIS-CNRS), Charlotte Ducuing (KU Leuven), and Jan Krewer (CEPN - Sorbonne Paris Nord) /We propose a roundtable discussion on the regulation for and of the digital commons, understood as shared data, knowledge, and informational resources created by online communities. The aim is to explore how state regulation can (i) protect digital commons from enclosure and extraction by Big Tech, and (ii) support their growth without compromising their integrity or ecological sustainability. Beyond licensing, we will consider a range of legal and policy instruments—public procurement, infrastructural support, antitrust, environmental and privacy law, etc. This roundtable seeks to lay the groundwork for a cross-disciplinary, structural research agenda, in line with the EU’s growing focus on digital commons and digital sovereignty./ *When*: 16:30h to 18:00h (CET), September 25, 2025 *Where*: Online / 59 Rue Pouchet Paris 75017 Should this be of interest, please register here <https://evento.renater.fr/survey/journees-du-cis-2025-4uujgz4d> to receive the link, or, rather than going through this complex form in French, simply email Ramya.Chandrasekhar@cnrs.fr and cis-evenements@cnrs.fr Full programme of both days (in French, except this session): https://cis.cnrs.fr/journees-du-cis-2025/ Thanks and kind regards, -- Melanie Dulong de Rosnay Research professor, CNRS https://cis.cnrs.fr/en/melanie_dulong/ Center for Internet and Society, CNRS Research Unit and Network Director, Research Network on Internet, AI and Society https://cis.cnrs.fr/en/the-cis/
