Educational publishers show WIPO delegates how copyright enables vital teaching innovations -

Educational publishers from around the world showed delegates at the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) how copyright has enabled them to invest in the digital technology that is shaping the future of school-age learning.

Invited by the International Publishers Association (IPA), the Federation of European Publishers (FEP) and Bertelsmann, the four publishers came from Brazil, Mexico, South Africa and the United Arab Emirates. They presented their home-grown innovations to the delegates, who are attending the 34th sitting of the Standing Committee on Copyright and Related Rights (SCCR), in Geneva.

FEP and Bertelsmann have developed similar events in Europe. This event aimed to highlight the fact that creativity is enhanced by copyright everywhere in the world.

The publishers, who are all IPA members through their own national publishers associations, delivered five-minute presentations before demonstrating their technologies in an up-close 'show and tell' setting.
