About ThingWiki
ThingWiki is designed to be a digital hub for collecting and sharing information - specifications, manuals, descriptions of spare parts, and tools - to promote greater reuse of goods and materials.
Participation in re:think Circular Economy – The AI Innovation Programme
ThingWiki endeavors to fill the information gap in the realm of object and material reuse by providing reliable, accessible guidance. Its unique model harnesses data from manufacturers, maintenance businesses, civil society organizations, and user contributions to create a comprehensive resource.
Joining the ThingWiki team opens up opportunities to tackle intriguing challenges:
- You'll help identify key stakeholders for a pilot implementation in Berlin, shaping a system map that paves the way for the growth.
- Address potential hurdles concerning data access, information updating, and user behavior, utilizing AI to devise innovative solutions.
- Brainstorm ideas for the commons-based governance of ThingWiki. This involves working on dispute resolution, formulating sustainable business models, and ensuring the platform aligns with policy and legislation concerning waste management, recycling, the circular economy, and the right to repair.
- Lastly, help them build a strong foundation for this project by recruiting co-founders and forging strategic partnerships.
