Comments and signatories sought for communique on ACTA and the public interest
This week, over 90 academics, practitioners and public interest organizations from five continents gathered at a meeting convened by American University’s Program on Information Justice and Intellectual Property (PIJIP) to analyze the official text of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA). The text was released for the first time in April, 2010, after years of secretive negotiations.
