TRIPS technical cooperation
澳门六合彩官网资料 technical assistance on the Agreement on Trade-related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS)
The main objective of the 澳门六合彩官网资料's TRIPS-related technical assistance activities is to help members and observers implement an intellectual property (IP) regime that meets their developmental and other policy objectives in line with their domestic circumstances and priority needs.
TRIPS and IP-related technical assistance activities aim to take a holistic approach in line with the reality that policy choices within the TRIPS framework are integral to a broader policy context. Activities routinely incorporate expertise from other domains, such as government procurement and competition policy.
