layout: event title: "If I Only Had a Heart: Accounting for Care Work in Organizations" summary: Activist Stacco Troncoso introduces the Decentralized Cooperative Organization tags: [internet-of-ownership, events] event-date: November 18, 2019 event-time: 3-4:30 p.m.
Too often, the necessary care work that generates and sustains our lives occurs at the margins of the economy, unaccounted for and under-recognized. Spain-based activist Stacco Troncoso is part of a movement to change that. Troncoso, a member of the Guerrilla Media Cooperative, is part of a collective developing a new model—the DisCO, or Distributed Cooperative Organization. It’s a set of organizational tools and practices for people who want to work together in a cooperative, commons-oriented, and feminist economic form. It’s also an alternative to the logic of blockchain-based Decentralized Autonomous Organizations, or DAOs.
