The European Commission has opened a call for expression of interest to participate in the stakeholder dialogue on the application of Article 17 of the Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market on the use of protected content by online content-sharing service providers.
The stakeholders will discuss best practices on how content-sharing platforms and service providers should cooperate with rights holders. This dialogue is requested under the new directive and will feed into the preparation of guidance on the application of Article 17.
The Commission will hold the first stakeholder meeting on October 15 in Brussels. The objective of the meeting is to gather and map existing practices for the use of copyright-protected content by online content-sharing service providers in cooperation with rights holders, as well as to gather user experiences. The deadline for applying is September 18.
