Europe

Welcome to Creative Commons in Europe! Between the European affiliates, we also work to increase collaboration and exchange. We're also a contact point for organisations, authorities and individuals who want to get in touch with Creative Commons experts in relation to any kind of questions or projects of pan-European scale and scope, as well as a channel through which statements and common opinions of the CC jurisdictions are communicated to European-level organisations and policy makers, f. e. in the course of consultations on European Union legislation.

Our primary activities are:

• to organize meetings and other events aimed at fostering collaboration and exchange between the participating affiliates,
• to raise additional funds for transnational activities like studies, surveys and networking initiatives, and
• to promote Creative Commons licensing and open access in general by increasing the outreach of the free licensing community.
