This document sets out the first strategic plan for WIPO’s newly created IP and gender program which aligns with WIPO’s Medium-Term Strategic Plan and complements WIPO’s Gender Policy. Under the IP and Gender Action Plan (IPGAP), WIPO’s policy is to lead the development of an IP ecosystem that promotes and encourages women’s engagement in IP and innovation. WIPO will equip member states and external stakeholders by providing the necessary data and information to integrate a gender perspective into IP legislation, policies, programs and projects. This will attract investments, create jobs and drive economic growth for the benefit of women, communities and member states.
