Working group 3 : Impacts of the Collaborative Economy
WG3 will be based on the collection of case studies produced in WG1 and it will examine these with regard to their economical, social and ethical impacts. The overarching objective is to explore domain specific issues related to the collaborative economy implementations and their impact on society – people, public institutions, cooperatives, not-for profit, or companies.
WG3 leader: Volkmar Pipek
The aim is twofold: 1) to develop a methodology to assess the ethical, legal, and social consequences of the emerging collaborative economies; and 2) to identify guidelines for the design of new platforms that consider the interrelation of practices and artefacts with ethical, legal and social issues.
Task list

T3.2 Identify social and technical guidelines for the design of new platforms
Deliverable list
D3.1 Specific section on the online repository on the social impact of the studied cases
