COMMUNIA Salon: Copyright in the DSM Directive – one year after
You are welcome to attend the “Copyright in the DSM Directive – one year after” event, organised by Communia, on Monday 18 May 2020 from 15:30 to 17:00.
Exactly one year after the Directive EU 2019/790 on Copyright and related rights on the Digital Single Market entered into effect, Communia will hold an online event (salon), providing updates and insights into the implementation status in EU Member States and in the discussions at the European Commission’s stakeholder dialogue.
The event will host four speakers: Teresa Nobre (COMMUNIA) will provide an overview of the implementation status in the different member states, Ula Furgal (CREATe) will discuss the new publishers’ right in Article 15, Paul Keller (COMMUNIA) will provide an overview of the discussions surrounding the implementation of Article 17, and Julia Reda (GFF /control ©) will talk about the role of litigation in ensuring a fundamental rights-preserving implementation of the new Directive. At the end, informal question and answer session will follow.
The Salon will be conducted via the Zoom platform. You can register beforehand here (link).
Welcome!
The 43rd session of the WIPO Standing Committee on Copyright and Related Rights (hereinafter SCCR) made substantial progress on the issues advocated by the A2K Coalition (Access to Knowledge Coalition), which IPI is a member of. This year’s session was the most productive on the issues of exceptions and limitations. James Love (Knowledge Ecology International), a long-time observer at WIPO, described the outcome and the impact of the public interest community as the strongest since the conclusion of the Marrakech Treaty, which brought global copyright exceptions for the benefit of the blind and visually impaired.
Today, March 17, 2023, a symposium on law in the information society is taking place in the golden lecture hall of the Faculty of Law in Ljubljana. Dr. Maja Bogataj Jančič will present copyright aspects of artificial intelligence at the symposium.
The third day of the 43rd session of the WIPO Standing Committee on Copyright and Related Rights is intended for discussion on the topic of exceptions and limitations to copyright, especially in connection with the right to research.
