On 7 and 8 May 2020, EUIPO, in collaboration with OAPI, delivered a 2-day online training session to the students of the OAPI – University of Yaoundé II – 2020 Master's Program on Intellectual Property.

The sessions focused on different topics, being one of them the presentation of a case recently decided by the Court of Justice of the European Union that deals with the level of protection of a GI in the form of a collective mark.

The presentation of this case created an excellent opportunity to engage with students in a debate about GIs and the different levels of protection.
