The International Association for the Study of the Commons is a nonprofit organization focused on understanding and improving how resources that can be held or used collectively are managed by communities in both developing and developed countries. Established in 1989, the association aims to facilitate knowledge exchange across disciplines and resource types, share scholarship and practical experience, and promote appropriate institutional design for commons governance. Based in Gary, Indiana, United States, it operates within the civic and social organizations sector and appears to have a very small organizational footprint. The organization serves researchers and practitioners interested in the governance of shared resources, offering a platform for exchanging ideas and experiences related to common property and collective management.
