On Monday, I will participate in an international conference in Geneva, Switzerland, sponsored by the PIRG-backed TransAtlantic Consumer Dialogue (tacd.org). The conference concerns the activities of the powerful, but obscure, UN agency known as the World Intellectual Property Organization. The Reform of WIPO: Implementing the Development Agenda will examine WIPO's well-known potential to make access to medicine and access to knowledge more affordable for billions of citizens across the globe. The question has always been: But does WIPO have the political will? The event is one in a series of TACD conferences on reforming intellectual property laws.
