Today, on WIPO’s World IP Day, the Right to Research project is participating in two launches of products on text and data mining in Africa.
Andres Izquierdo is at the WIPO Committee on Development and Intellectual Property supporting the African Group and their proposal of a pilot project on copyright and text and data mining for research institutions. The project proposes to work with researchers and copyright experts to build legal literacy on TDM for research in three countries. Notably, it is the only project on the current CDIP agenda addressing limitations and exceptions as a means to promote development through IP rules.
I am at Strathmore University in Nairobi for a launch of the Centre for Intellectual Property and Information Technology Law’s report on Right to Research and Copyright Law in Kenya: Text and Data Mining. You can join online at https://t.co/Tdp5NwTolA. The report is available here.
