“Traditional Knowledge as Intellectual Property: Opportunities and Challenges at the International Level.”
About the Event
We are elated to announce that the Microsoft- IPR Chair-GNLU and DPIIT IPR Chair-GNLU are jointly organizing a webinar on “Traditional Knowledge as Intellectual Property: Opportunities and Challenges at the International Level.”
The existing IP regime that is prevalent worldwide was developed along the lines of growing industrialization in the West. As a result, the traditional knowledge systems of indigenous people around the world do not enjoy due protection under the existing IP protection regime. Therefore, the indigenous populations and local communities all around the world including developing countries have been lobbying for the protection of their traditional knowledge systems, claiming protection for the aforementioned as Intellectual Property.
The Webinar will be extremely enriching and enlightening on the Opportunities and Challenges regarding the protection of Traditional Knowledge under the umbrella of Intellectual Property. Details of the webinar are listed below, and we invite and encourage participation for the same.
Date and Time
Wednesday, 13 October 2021 – 6 PM – 7 PM IST
