Plans for 2008

During 2008, the Clinic will deepen and expand its engagement with students, researchers and practitioners across the country and internationally by:

• creating an internship program, which will be open to students and those with relevant experience from all over the country and potentially internationally;

• developing more formal links (e.g., in the form of advising and supervising) with undergraduate and postgraduate students conducting research into Creative Commons;

• running an open content licensing Masters of Law unit in Second Semester 2008;

• offering a series of professional development workshops for Primary and Tertiary education teachers across Queensland as part of the QUT Smart Train initiative;

• working with key institutions such as the ABC to promote new projects and opportunities;

• co-organising and participating in the Asia Commons Conference to be held in Taipei (Taiwan) in January 2008;

• organising an international conference, ‘CC for You’, to be held in June 2008; this will showcase research and case studies on Creative Commons; and

• hosting leading members of the international open culture community in Australia.
