Affiliates

Welcome to our wiki for Creative Commons Affiliates!

The international porting project involves legal experts around the world who translate and then legally adapt the core Creative Commons Licenses to different copyright legislations. Additionally, our affiliate project supports leads around the world who are working to build and help maintain communities of CC license users.

This wiki is for Creative Commons jurisdictions projects, project leads, and the public, to access and share documents, ideas, and resources about the license porting process and community building projects.

Affiliate Program Improvements -- Call for Affiliate Comments

In an effort to improve our Affiliate program and CC's global reach and impact, Creative Commons is creating new opportunities for individuals and organizations to engage with CC. Among other things, we aim to improve our infrastructure so that we can better support Affiliate collaboration, with CC directly as well as between Affiliates, jurisdictions, and regions.

In December 2009, we began the process of restructuring of our Affiliate program and network. As a first milestone, CC is pleased to announce a new form Memorandum of Understanding and related Policies, which will replace our existing MOU and other Affiliate-related agreements and policies. CC is posting the new and improved MOU and Policies for comment by existing, official Affiliates of CC. The comment process will close on 9th August 2010.

Information about our new MOU and related policies can be found on our MOU and Policies Summary Page. We encourage you to take a look at these documents and share your feedback. Please note that all Affiliates must transition to the new form of MOU by 30 September 2010 in order to continue as an official Affiliate of CC.
