unMonastery
http://www.unmonastery.eu/
In an already identified location in Matera, unMonastery is a new kind of social space; a modern version of a medieval monastery (albeit totally secular), a place where the inhabitants live and work together to serve the community.
By living together the cost of living is reduced, through realignment of the energies and efforts of the so-called non-monks and non-nuns. The concept aims to enhance the ability to deal with collective problems and fosters an environment for collaborative ideas and innovation.

WikiMatera
http://www.wikitalia.it/
Matera adheres to Wikitalia, a project led by a group of citizens who believe that the Internet can enable new forms of collaboration between institutions and citizens. They make it possible to mobilize collective intelligence of civic communities and channel it towards common goals: this greatly increases the ability of government authorities in a complex society, and breathes new life in to democratic participation.
