@MelissaOmino, @StrathCIPIT's Director, welcomes you to our seminar, ‘Promoting #A2K & #R2R’. In line with the #WorldIPDay's theme, she hails the women who bolster innovation and creativity. She hopes that the policymakers present will consider the outcomes of today’s discourse.

As opposed to just being custodians of physical materials, librarian Ms Janegrace Kinyanjiu walks us through the digitisation of the library resource. She does, however, point out that upholding #ip rights, such as copyright, is difficult with e-resources. #WorldIPDay #a2k #r2r

Mr Jonathan Band discusses whether licencing supports or hinders #R2R. He posits that 'Kenya should adopt a general clause that overrides contracts that attempt to limit exceptions just as is done in the UK, Nigeria, Singapore and SA'. #WorldIPDay Join us: bit.ly/3ncREJX

Dr Catherine Nandain takes us through Education and #Copyright. She discusses the repercussions of a teacher delivering educational materials to students in a situation where an arrest for copyright infringement may likely occur.  Join in: bit.ly/3ncREJX #WorldIPDay #a2k

To crown the #WorldIPDay, we launched the Getting Started Guide–Implementing the Marrakesh Treaty for persons with print disabilities in Kenya led by @T_Hackett, Martin Kieti, @Amatika_Faith and Janegrace Kinyanjiu. 🥳 Access the guide here: bit.ly/3V6BApC #a2k #r2r
