Program on Information Justice and Intellectual Property

The TRIPS wavier -currently under debate at the World Trade Organization - would suspend certain trade obligations to protect intellectual property in situations where they are hampering the fight against Covid-19.

The Lecture is named in recognition of the continuing contributions of Professor Peter A. Jaszi to the study of intellectual property at WCL, in the world at large, and in particular for his lasting contributions to the elevation of the public interest in intellectual property discourse.

Yesterday, PIJIP hosted a panel at the World Trade Organization's Public Forum, which this year is based on the theme “Trade Beyond Covid-19: Building Resilience."

The article focuses companies seeking to get their cases moved out of Waco, Texas, a location that has become the “nation’s fledgling patent dispute hotbed.”

On September 22, PIJIP hosted the panel on Mapping the World of Limitations and Exceptions in Copyright Law. The event was moderated by Andrés Izquierdo, PIJIP's Senior Research Analyst for the Arcadia project on the Right to Research in International Copyright.
