The Chairman of the Board of the Intellectual Property Agency of Azerbaijan Kamran Imanov, who participated in the 58th Series of Meetings of the Assemblies of the Member States of the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO), held in Geneva in early October, has presented to the WIPO Director General Francis Gurry the relevant documents about the country’s accession to the Marrakesh Treaty to Facilitate Access to Published Works for Persons Who Are Blind, Visually Impaired or Otherwise Print Disabled, the agency said in a statement October 8.
The treaty was adopted on June 27, 2013 in the city of Morocco. After the adoption of this treaty, the conditions were created for the blind, disabled people with visual impairments for ensuring their freedom to look for any information and ideas of their choice, as well as to receive and disseminate them on an equal basis with persons who do not have such a disability.
In addition, the conditions have been created for the adequate solution of problems that restrict their opportunities in receiving the education.
