The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) has launched a mentorship programme to enhance capacity of copyright management organizations in Pakistan at a local hotel.

In collaboration with the Intellectual Property Organization of Pakistan (IPO Pakistan), the Japan Copyright Office (JCO), and the Agency for Cultural Affairs, Government of Japan, the programme aimed to enhance the capacity of copyright management organizations in Pakistan, promoting the protection and utilization of intellectual property rights in the country. The two-day event, starting Wednesday, has brought together local and international experts to share the best practices, knowledge, and experiences in copyright management, fostering a robust and sustainable copyright ecosystem in Pakistan. IPO-Pakistan Director General Shazia Adnan, addressing the concluding session on Thursday, said the two-day national event on the WIPO mentorship programme underscored our dedication to enhancing copyright management systems and supporting Pakistans creative industries.

Throughout this event, we have delved into crucial topics such as WIPOs activities in collective management, CISACs roles and initiatives, the role of local collective management organizations (CMOs) in building creative ecosystems, and the current status and future perspectives of copyright and related rights in Pakistan. These discussions have provided us with a wealth of knowledge and practical strategies that we can apply to improve the operations and effectiveness of our CMOs she said. The DG said we have identified key areas for improvement in legislation, enforcement, awareness, governance, licensing, documentation, and distribution. I am confident that the insights and strategies developed during these sessions will significantly contribute to the growth and success of our collective management organizations. IPO-Pakistan Director Amin Javeria delivered a welcome address, expressing her delight at the presence of esteemed representatives from WIPO, CISAC, and local copyright management organizations.
