La Foresta

La Foresta is a community academy that is located at the train station of Rovereto in the valley of Vallagarina, Trentino, an autonomous province in the North of Italy. The project was collectively founded in 2017, the initiators were motivated by the desire to create a space where different cultures and the various civic actors in the area could come together to learn from each other, both in theory and practice, in order to explore emerging commons and community economies. As such, the space and project provide an infrastructure for emergent commoning practices, on the one hand, and an avenue to shape concrete demands and practices for the territory as a commons, on the other.
