|---|---|
| Grants/2lifeCast + | The documentation of all no-profit works and events created by 2lifeCast is licensed under Creative Commons non-commercial share alike. This means that a huge amount of work is made freely available to the entire community. More than this we will use and apply CC+ whenever an author may deliver his/her creation to the profit world, thus maintaining "the commons" but extending it to the money sphere. |
| Grants/A journey on foot--Chekhov in sounds project + | We promote Creative Commons' mission to media by our good media relationship. In addition, we have positive Taiwan CC mission supporter Lim Giong's support. |
| Grants/Access to Knowledge and Alternatives to Copyright in El Salvador + | This project will take this message directly to decision makers: the application of alternatives to copyright, such as Creative Commons Licenses and Free-software, is a key issue for El Salvador; this will foster creativity, education, culture and technology’s development. The message will also be given to the civil society entities, which are going to benefit by the acquisition of new capacities that enables them to maximize the potential of the culture and knowledge they manage. Salvadoran society will be benefit too, by having a website that will offer information about the importance of access to knowledge, copyright and its alternatives. |
| Grants/Adopting Highly-Reconfigurable, Networked Cameras for Live-Streamed Meetings + | This grant proposal, if successful, would "open-up" a wide range of creative discussions via recording devices preset to live-stream -- with informed consent -- video released under Creative Commons licenses. |
| Grants/Applying Creative Commons to rural development in China. + | The project will introduce the concept of Creative Commons to teachers, school pupils, villagers, and government officials in China. The teachers in particular will be able to pass on their understanding of CC to future intakes of pupils. It will also generate a substantial volume of material which will be useful for research and other projects, and which will be CC-licensed. |
| Grants/Approach for a Working Emerging Field Through Scratch for Secondary Students + | For the project “Approach for a Working Emerging Field Through Scratch for Secondary Students” will have netbooks bought, that will have operating system Ubuntu. Each computer will have install the Scratch programming platform. If the proyect have a good impact we will install other open source plataforms (Processing, Pure Data, Arduino, Blender),and teach them also. In parallel all the activities (video and audio editing, writing, or programming applications) done in the computers will be licensed Creative Commons and the be online for the community. |
| Grants/Arabic Open Educational Resources (OER) Platform + | The platform represents a repository for creative commons licensed learning materials that will consist of cultural, scientific and educational content, not to mention that it will significantly increase the semi-inexistent Arabic content in the “commons”. |
| Grants/Assessing the effect of license choice on the use of lexical resources + | WordNets in many languages help to increase the amount of creativity in two main ways: (a) by allowing semantic relations to be used in other applications. For example in the open clip art library, someone searching for a picture of “carnivore” will currently give no hits. With WordNets they could be given pictures from all nodes under “carnivore” such as lions, tigers and seals, ... (b) the multilingual WordNets allow work done in one language to be more quickly ported to another: for example a word tagged as “driver#n#1” could be searched for with any of its synonyms in any language (eng: chauffeur; jpn: 運転手; deu: Fahrer; ...) without being confused by different senses of driver (the golf club or software driver). |
| Grants/AudioImager + | The software will become one of the tools that enable its users to enjoy and refine the available open content works. The software will automatically properly the authors whose works are used in the videos. |
| Grants/Avbi personal : budget tax advisor web tool for Guatemala + | once implemented we will reach the end user , and others like the tax agency, universities and will be possible to spread the understanding of open source licensing with the web tool, manuals and other material. the aim is to set an example (other than internet examples) of creativity made by involving the culture of Guatemala in education on economics through a computer science solution in "the commons" way, available for the public to use. for example we can start inviting software developers for the connections with service/utility providers (api's) or home economy specialist for white papers , articles. |
| Grants/BatasPinoy Project + | BatasPinoy Project seeks to capture initially basic Philippine laws involving popular topics/issues. After the launching of the project, we intend to have an active campaign to inspire other legal scholars to develop their own materials and have them uploaded and be made available in the AidLaw website under a CC license until such time that we are able to cover every legal concern in our jurisdiction. In this way, we accomplish CC's mission to increase the amount of creativity at least in legal content. |
| Grants/Beirut Metblogs + | Since our inception all of the posts and images on Metblogs have been licensed using Creative Commons and we are firm believers in the value of this kind of sharing. We feel that having a prominent blog in Beirut and publishing all works via creative commons will only continue to bring value to the community and inspire others to do the same. Using Karachi as the model again, before us there was no online media about the city, now there are hundreds of sites all of which use CC to help spread their message. |
| Grants/Best Practices for Startups: Leveraging CC to Optimize Resources + | This project is aimed at Guatemala's innovative and entrepreneurial youth. We have had the experience of watching young entrepreneurs struggle with licensing and legal rights; this in turn limiting their creativity, their incentives to create, and the time they should be spending instead on their startups. Learning about CC and how to implement CC in their businesses to become collaborators and not just competitors in their communities will be a valuable source of creativity. We have struggled as an Incubator to break cultural paradigms on sharing their business ideas. This is the perfect channel through which they can share and receive feedback, and still be protected from having other entrepreneurs and investors steal their ideas or misuse the information the entrepreneurs share. |
| Grants/BiDi en Iberoamèrica + | Digital Library projects are increasing in Latin America and not many of them include the copyright discussion, the notion of open access, and the role of the open licenses We believe that sites such as the one that we propose will bring visibility to successful projects, provide reliable and robust tools for open access implementation, and the ability to collect in one place such experiences through Creative Commons licenses in the Spanish-speaking context It is a useful tool to increase multiplier brand recognition for the licenses in asociation with these specific topics. |
| Grants/CC Asia Pacific Conference 2010 + | By sharing experiences from different regions, people will be able to learn how CC can be applied and utilized in various ways, which will give them inspiration to get new innovative ideas and explore possible projects. In particular, this year’s CC Asia conference is to be held under the theme of “Open for innovation," dwelling on how sharing and open culture can further nurture creativity and innovation. As the amount of content available is rapidly increasing, this event will contribute to promoting the values CC embodies and highlighting the potential CC brings. |
| Grants/CC Commentary + | Understanding how licenses are meant to function and how they are actually received in society and legal communities is important to sustain growth of the voluntary commons in the digital age. The commentary format can represent a substantial improvement to this understanding, just to name one concrete example: It would make possible a lateral review of all international case law regarding a specific CC license provision. This brings some additional stability to the legal discourse around the CCPL. It also helps to build up confidence in private order as a concept and improves legal certainty by handing legal practicioners a type of resource that is currently missing. |
| Grants/CC Full-dome + | Full-dome is still a quite exclusive and closed medium due to many factors: The makers need: 1) Knowledge of and money for the tools to create, render and present the films, 2) The connections to a full-dome for testing and presenting, 3) To efficiently manage the gigantic data flow which is needed for creating content for the Dome. For the audience: 1) Absurdly high licensing fees for "professional" full-dome films make their presentation an incredible expense for planetariums and quickly over-saturate the market with films of a primarily scientific nature. 2) Weimar (and a majority of other mid-size cites across the planet) do not have such facilities, forcing the audience to travel The CC-dome in Weimar will give everyone who is interested in sharing creative output the possibility to use a professional render-farm, to have non-bureaucratic access to a Dome for testing and presenting their work and it will finally take the Dome out of the planetarium and open it for everyone who is searching for new media formats in a friendly, open and sharing context. Furthermore, the knowledge we will have gained in the process will be returned to the community to be reworked, improved and shared. |
| Grants/CC Latin Policy + | By identifying triggers and hurdles in the adoption of CC licenses by public sector, universities and libraries, the project allows sharing of experiences and best / worst practices in the negotiation and the implementation of a CC licensing strategy. One of the research goals is to analyze how CC licensing and Open Access (OA) policy could be a good solution suitable to public institutions with similar legal, administrative and cultural background. |
| Grants/CC Policy Makers and Industry Leaders Arab World Forum + | Greater adoption of CC in the Arab region will promote the amount of Arabic content available online. Understanding how CC licenses can be used by business, government and the education sector would be expected to lead to an increase of Arabic content available for open access and reuse. In particular, education is critically important for social and economic development and the forum will discuss how CC can be used to increase the availability of educational materials and foster research collaborations in schools, universities and research centres in Jordan and the Arab world. |
| Grants/CC Uploader for Drupal + | - Measurable increase the amount of video content with well structured CC license information - Measurable increase the number of local organizations incorporating Creative Commons into their video production curriculum - Measurable increase the number of content producers familiar with Creative Commons licensing options at each location that implements the CC Uploader - Potential for new creative and/or educational work created from content distributed and CC licensed because of this project |
| Grants/CDLD Editions + | Easy. The CDLD virtual publishing house will edit and publish free material by national and international collaborators using the Creative Commons "Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.5 Mexico" license. |
| Grants/CDLD.ORG / Virtual Documentation Center of the Arts + | All of the files on the page are 100% downloadable. So the CC licensing is a big part of the web page. We would be using the "Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.5 Mexico" license, so we would generate hundreds, hopefully thousands, of new users to this license. This way, all these new users would be collectively creating a huge database, granting free and unlimited access to anyone interested, encouraging sharing creative and intellectual property. |
| Grants/Cacao, Commons’ Central American Observatory + | The use of CC licenses has grown in Central America without its promotion in spaces of reflection and discussion about copyright, handling information, communitarian journalism, culture, etc. The absence of reflection has made the Creative Commons movement be unnoticed during its boom. The CC mission will find an answer of its users with their thoughts, reflections and questions through the space that Cacao project will develop. |
| Grants/Catalyst Languages + | We expect, based on attendance at previous courses we have been involved in, 15-20 teachers would come to our courses, who would then return to their home schools and further disseminate the information. |
| Grants/Central and Eastern European Free Culture Policy Workshop + | The external policy document will help raise awareness of issues related to free culture and hopefully affect national-level or European policy. Secondly, an internal policy document will sum up experiences of regional activists and describe effective ways for promoting and spreading free culture in Central and Eastern Europe. Finally, the workshop process itself will strengthen Creative Commons' presence in the region, by allowing for exchange of knowledge, networking, and common strategic goals. |
