Puneet arrived at CC via a rural development NGO in New Delhi, the World Bank in Washington DC, a GeoSpatial consultancy and data research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

What is Creative Commons?

 

UCC Law Department is the Irish partner in the worldwide Creative Commons movement, which develops legal and technical infrastructure which maximizes digital creativity, sharing, and innovation.  Creative Commons is headquartered in Mountain View, California and has more than 100 affiliates worldwide.  Creative Commons has enabled a new approach to copyright licensing and its licences are used by the Australian Federal Parliament, YouTube, the White House, Flickr and Wikipedia.  The UK Research Council now requires Creative Commons licensing in its Open Access Policy.  The Public Leads of Creative Commons Ireland are Dr Darius Whelan and Dr Louise Crowley of UCC Law Department.
