Motivation for weCreate

• To further the the Ministry of Education and the Open Education Resource Foundation's mission to support the development of reusable and portable digital content in New Zealand schools, by addressing copyright as a potential barrier to a sustainable OER ecosystem.
• To further NZGOAL's purpose by encouraging the realisation of significant creative and economic potential that may lie dormant in copyright material when locked up in Corwn Entities and not released on terms allowing re-use by others.
• To further Creative Commons Aotearoa New Zealand's remit to support communities who benefit from the use of Creative Commons licences in New Zealand.
