The colloquium implements WIPO’s Strategic Goal VI – international cooperation on building respect for intellectual property (IP) – through the creation of a regional forum of exchange on IP enforcement for experts from the judiciary. Addressing enforcement in the context of broader societal and economic goals, it also aims at strengthening the capacity in participating WIPO Member States for the effective enforcement of IP rights in the interest of development and consumer protection. In particular, the colloquium has the objective: (i) to enhance knowledge of IP enforcement and its challenges; (ii) to increase the effectiveness of civil and criminal IP proceedings in the interest of development and consumer protection; and (iii) to create and international network of IP experts from the judiciary that allows for ongoing exchange and cooperation. |
