Implementing the World Intellectual Property Organization’s Development Agenda
The newly adopted World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Development Agenda presents a real opportunity to revolutionize the international governance of intellectual property law and policy. The litmus test for its success, however, will be if and how the agenda is implemented in practice. This edited collection brings together a series of incisive essays written by leading thinkers from emerging economies, Canada, and elsewhere to develop concrete strategies for implementing the agenda.

Twenty Years of Legal History (Making) at the Copyright Board of Canada
During the past 20 years, more or less, copyright has evolved from a relatively obscure area of specialized legal practice to a topic at the forefront of public consciousness and policy debates. This metamorphosis might be due to technolog- ical innovation, social practices, commercial developments, or, most likely, some combination of those and other things. Mainstream media coverage is probably the best barometer of copyright's growing importance, but there has also been a discernable increase in the judiciary's attention to the issues. Professor de Beer's presentation seeks to underscore the crucial contributions of the Copyright Board on some of the most inter- esting and important copyright law matters decided during the past two decades. From concep- tual challenges to the integrity of the collective management system to policy choices about the balancing of stakeholder interests to technical disputes about over statutory interpretation, the Board has been instrumental in defining the shape of copyright practice in Canada today. As new copyright challenges continue to arise over the coming decades, the Board's role is predicted to grow even larger.

Innovation & Intellectual Property
The Open African Innovation Research and Training (Open A.I.R.) project focused on the intersection of innovation, intellectual property (IP), and development in Africa and this book offers its research findings. Its case studies cover nine African countries-Egypt, Nigeria, Ghana, Ethiopia, Uganda, Kenya, Mozambique, Botswana, and South Africa-looking at IP rights in a range of sites of innovation: agricultural production, biofuel technology, traditional medicine, research collaboration, automotive manufacturing, music production, and scholarly publishing.
International Trade, Intellectual Property, and Innovation Policy
This chapter addresses intersections among international trade law, intellectual property rights, and domestic innovation policies to prevent, detect, and treat pandemics. Structural issues with Canada's innovation system affected preparedness for this pandemic and, unless remedied, will impede responses to future crises. In this chapter, we suggest aligning domestic and international policy measures to nuance Canada's approach to intellectual property and accelerate Canada's global contributions through open science.
