“How to Protect and Promote Your Culture” webinar series
Wednesday, March 24 from 3.00 p.m to 4.15 p.m (CET)

Inspired by the WIPO Traditional Knowledge Division’s publication Protect and Promote Your Culture - A Practical Guide to Intellectual Property for Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities, this webinar series is primarily addressed to indigenous peoples and local communities. We will be focusing on some of the main intellectual property tools that can be useful for them in the protection and promotion of their wealth of traditional knowledge and traditional cultural expressions.

This first webinar will cover collective marks and certification marks. Two members of indigenous peoples and local communities will share their experiences using collective marks and certification marks. An intellectual property expert will then explain key concepts of collective marks and certification marks, highlighting how they can be relevant to the particular needs of indigenous peoples and local communities.
