Copyright Clearance Center, Inc. (CCC), a leader in advancing copyright, accelerating knowledge, and powering innovation, is sponsoring and participating in the International Publishers Association’s (IPA) conference on ‘Africa Rising: Realizing Africa’s Potential as a Global Publishing Leader in the 21st Century’ in Nairobi, Kenya, June 14-15.
Through initiatives of this kind, CCC partners with like-minded organisations to foster copyright and licensing as essential ingredients of healthy, sustainable, and effective publishing industries.
Under the auspices of its International Advancement Program, CCC has supported collective licensing bodies in Ghana, the Philippines, Zambia, Jamaica, and Argentina, helping them build organisations, systems, and processes to enable licensing of academic and scholarly content in local universities and schools. The program offers a range of support based on local needs, such as training, mentoring, and providing customized materials and resources. A good example of this work is where CCC helped establish the local Reproduction Rights Organization of Ghana, CopyGhana.
