The CAPRi seminar at the meeting of the International Association for the Study of Common Property (IASCP) brought together researchers and practitioners who presented their findings from recent work around the topics "Defending the Commons & Decentralization and the Commons". The presentations and discussions explored the different pathways used by  various  actors to  secure rights to natural resources in the commons.  There was also a presentation on the Digital
