The infrastructure phase of AI governance has begun. Recently, CC attended the AI Impact Summit in Delhi, and what became clear is that AI governance is shifting. The conversation is moving beyond high-level principles and into harder, more structural questions about infrastructure, stewardship, and power.

Read our reflection on the biggest takeaways from Delhi and what we believe is CC's critical role in filling a global implementation gap.

Did you know that less than 1% of the world’s institutions share heritage in open access? In this article, our Open Culture team provides an overview of the main barriers to equitable access to public domain heritage in the digital environment, makes the case for openness as a key principle in the preservation and dissemination of documentary heritage, and shares examples of positive reuse enabled by open heritage.

Over the past year, we've been engaged in a series of conversations with a small group of researchers specializing in IP, AI policy, and data governance about what CC licensing means—and does—in African contexts today. Our newest blog post discusses the themes that have emerged from those conversations and asks a broader question: how must "open" evolve to remain just, relevant, and community centered?

In November 2025, we had the privilege of supporting and participating in Semana de la Cultura Libre in Montevideo, Uruguay: a week-long celebration of open culture organized by CC Uruguay. The week offered a powerful reminder that free culture is not an abstract idea but a living practice shaped by local communities, histories, and needs.

Read our full recap on the event and some of our biggest takeaways in our new blog post!
