<http://www.schoolofcommoning.com/content/making-worlds-2013-building-commons>this

Making Worlds: a Commons Coalition brings 
projects working to reclaim the commons to the 
fore of the Occupy movement. Commons can be 
defined as: resources managed and sustained by 
the communities that make use of them. The 
commons belong to the 99% yet are endangered by 
privatization and commodification. Making Worlds 
grows out of an understanding that Occupy itself 
is a form of commoning, a process in which 
everyone can participate, every voice can 
contribute, an open movement that belongs to no 
one and to everyone. Through holding 
conversations in communities around the city 
among organizations, activists and others, we aim 
to: create links between the Occupy movement, the 
Commons movement, activist organizations and 
people who may not consider themselves activists. 
This way we can become visible to each other and 
work together on our common problems.

Making Worlds: a Commons Coalition- is a 
collaborative effort by Occupy Wall St and other 
groups and individuals to explore the utility of 
the commons in creating a better world.

Fear not therefore: for there is nothing covered 
that shall not be revealed; and nothing hid that 
shall not be made known. What I tell you in 
darkness, that speak ye in the light and what ye 
hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. Matthew 10:26-27
