Consultative Committee announces the launching of GI Hub

As one of the three pilot projects for the development and protection of GIs in Africa, the Consultative Committee for the Continental Strategy for Geographical Indications is launching the mock-up of the future Pan African Geographical Indications information hub. This would enable the visualisation, probing and testing of the functionality of the platform to be developed in the future, before it made accessible to the general public. 

The structure of the mock up platform is divided in sections that in the future will allow for the collection, aggregation and presentation of information on Protected and potential new GIs, past, present and future projects on GIs in Africa, relevant legal frameworks, research, studies, and training programs on GIs.
