The new online platform is aimed at collective creation projects such as community gardens, social centers, activist networks or other communities around the world that work for the common good and want to get more people involved in them.

Teem, a new app to promote collaborative projects

Teem is a free software application created to help groups open their projects to new collaborators. It is a photo gallery that shows all the projects that take place in a space or community with the aim of facilitating the involvement and participation of new people.

This new tool has been created by a group of researchers from the Complutense University within the European P2Pvalue project, which focuses on the study of communities that manage common goods.

The developers of this tool have focused their work on creating a tool that helps collaborative projects to involve more people and, ultimately, to make sustainable those initiatives built collectively.

In general, in this type of community, the degree of participation is not equal, "there are usually very few people who pull the car and, as the process of incorporating others is so complicated, they end up doing everything always the same for what they do. they run the risk of ending up burned, that's why we created Teem," explains Antonio Tapiador of the Teem team.

With this new tool the organizers or people involved in collaborative projects can post photos to show what is done within their project, in addition to adding details of the activities they develop and thus facilitate the involvement of new people.

During its study, the Teem team has identified three types of profiles or roles within the collaborative projects: the drivers that are only 1%, the occasional collaborators that represent 9% and the users who are 90%. "That 90% of people who consume from this community have no idea how the community works inside, how to get involved," says Tapiador.
