Commons Convening 2024

Joining hands to protect our Commons.

Commons – such as community forests, pastures, and water bodies – are critical for rural and tribal communities to meet basic needs such as food, water, firewood, and fodder. They also provide communities with a distinct social and cultural identity, serving as spaces for interaction, negotiation and deliberation, nurturing solidarity for living and working together.

Commons Convening 2024 is the first of many gatherings designed to advance a cohesive, system-wide dialogue that amplifies the importance of Commons in achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and climate action goals.

Motifs of the Commons

A scalable design system that showcases the various ingredients, elements and motifs of the Commons – from community interactions and debates, to the produce of Commons.

From the vulnerable Hornbill, to grazing pastures and from neem leaves to ber fruit – the motifs represent the vast diversity of the Commons.

Collaborating for Impact

2024 was the first of many Convenings – an intention to bring together social impact organisations, grassroots activists, pastoralists, conservationists, and voices from across country,

The theme for 2024 was ‘Collaborating for Impact’. The event identity is paired back, allowing the rich visual language to stand out and create focus on the messaging and storytelling.

Venue Branding

The modular grid system of the visual language – a different set of elements coming together each time – created a rich and vibrant event experience. Each set of graphic elements tells you a different story.
