Vision
- Why is Creative Commons important for the jurisdiction?
In many environments in our country (even academics, social media, bloggers, etc) copyright is not taken seriously. There is a generalized thought that if something is on the Internet it can be used freely without attribution or any other compensation to the authors. We see CC as a tool to create awareness and reinforce the concept of copyright among artists, creators, academics, musicians and any person that uses a creative work.
CC gives creators the alternative to share their creative work under conditions that are not possible under traditional copyright, facilitating the control of their work under more flexible conditions, depending on the desires of the author.
- What do you think makes a successful jurisdiction project?
An active community of creators using CC licenses.
Panama chapter recognized in the country as authority in the area of intellectual property.
- How do you see the jurisdiction project contributing to the CC Affiliate Network?
Sharing experiences and collaborating with the CC affiliate network in regional proposals. Also, helping new groups to become affiliate chapters. Since April 2015 we are participating with Central America CC chapters in the creation of a bimonthly bulletin about Free Knowledge and Culture.
Community
- Describe the communities that are currently active in the project.
We are part of these communities:
IPANDETEC http://ipandetec.org/
Fundación Panameña de Tecnologías Libres http://www.floss-pa.net
These organizations work in Panama to promote topics such as Free Software, Free Knowledge, Digital Rights and organize events periodically, such as the Software Freedom Day, release parties, hackathons, talks and others.
- Describe the communities (existing or new) that you plan to focus on during the timeframe covered by this roadmap?
Public and private universities: to promote the use of CC within the academia (academic publications, thesis and others)
NGOs and groups that create educational content: doing talks and seminars directed towards these groups with the aim of motivating them to use CC licences for the content they produce.
- How do you plan to engage with these communities?
Priority Goals
- What are the three most important focus areas on which the Affiliate Team will work during this time period? Please consider community building and adoption goals among your priorities.
1. Focus-area: Outreach
Goals
1- Promover el uso de las licencias Creative Commons mediante la realización de charlas y jornadas informativas organizadas en conjunto con instituciones culturales, educativas y ONGs en el país. En una primera gira se realizaron 5 charlas informativas de diciembre de 2014 a marzo de 2015, en distintos puntos de la ciudad capital con una asistencia total de aproximadamente 70 personas de distintas ramas profesionales y artísticas.
2- Creación de sitio web de la comunidad Creative Commons Panamá como medio de contacto y difusión de las actividades locales e internacionales, así como noticias de interés del ámbito de la cultura libre.
2. Focus-area: meetings and alliances
Goals
1- Organizar reuniones con organizaciones, ONGs y entidades públicas para dar a conocer las licencias Creative Commons y brindarles ideas de cómo incorporar las licencias en su entidad. De igual forma, proponer proyectos en conjunto para la realización de esas ideas/propuestas.
2- Creación de alianzas bajo la figura de convenios con universidades para promover la adopción de las licencias Creative Commons en contenidos académicos generados por docentes, investigadores y estudiantes, en especial promover el tema de Open Access y las experiencias que ya se tienen en instituciones académicas a nivel internacional.
3. Focus-area: licensing CC days
Goal 1- Organizar jornadas de licenciamiento para personas que produzcan obras intelectuales vayan con una obra en particular que deseen licenciar con Creative Commons.

Resources Required
People
- What human resources or expertise must the team seek out or add to your existing resources, if any, in order to achieve your priority goals?
- How will you involve these people?
Technology
- What technology resources must the team seek out or add to your existing resources, if any, in order to achieve your priority goals?
- How will you obtain these technology resources?
Materials
- What material resources must the team seek out or add to your existing resources, if any, in order to achieve your priority goals?
- How will you obtain these material resources?
Other
- What other resources must the team seek out or add to all the other resources, if any, in order to achieve your priority goals?
- How will you obtain these other resources?
Sustainability and Scalability
- How will you ensure your goals will be completed if unforeseen circumstances interrupt the project, such as changes in the leadership of the project or outputs taking longer to complete than anticipated?
The best we can do if this happens is to be prepared. In our case we have a team of people that can assume different roles within the chapter in case someone can not continue to participate. Regarding to projects, the strategy can be to split the project into parts and/or reformulate it to reduce the number of activities to the minumum feasible.
- How will you communicate the project's on-going progress and setbacks within the jurisdiction and the CC Affiliate Network? (e.g. email list updates, meetings, press releases)
Mailing lists Monthly meetings Social media (facebook and twitter)
- How will you document the project so that others may replicate or learn from your efforts?
Using a wiki (e.g. mediawiki)
Collaboration
- Please have a look at other roadmaps.
- How could the jurisdiction's plans help drive or support other jurisdictions' activities?
- What are other jurisdictions doing that might support or contribute to the project?
- Would you be interested in mentoring new jurisdiction teams?
- Conversely, would you be interested in having a mentor from a more experienced jurisdiction team?
Regional
- Suggest three possible projects on which you can collaborate with other teams on a regional level. If you are not yet involved with the regional network, please contact the regional spokesperson (if any) or notify CC HQ to put you in touch with others.
- How do you plan to contribute to these projects?
Translation
- In what language(s) will you promote CC in the jurisdiction and why?
