He updated participants on <strong>the role of GIs in both recently signed and under negotiation EU trade agreements<\/strong>, as well as on the results of the t<strong>hird African Union \u2013 European Union Agricultural Ministerial Conference<\/strong>, held in Rome in June 2019. Ms. Diana Akullo Ogwal (Policy Officer, Rural Economy and Agriculture Department, African Union Commission) as well, later mentioned the Political Declaration endorsed by EU and AU on the implementation of an <strong>African Union Geographical Indication Continental strategy<\/strong>, with the aim of launching an Africa GI training programme and an Africa GI web platform, with the support of European Union.<\/p>\n<p>Besides discussing the economic, social and cultural aspects of GIs, their protection and the enforcement of controls, the conference also dealt with GIs branding and marketing and with the <strong>relationship between trademarks and GIs<\/strong>. Plus, in the panel dedicated to <strong>Geographical Indications and Common Names<\/strong>, a lively debate on the issue of <em>\u201cgenericity\u201d<\/em> has taken place. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Symposium has been an occasion to raise awareness on the valorisation of a product through a GI, showing the results achieved by some remarkable experiences, such as the activity carried out by AMIGHA (L\u2019Association Marocaine de l\u2019Indication G\u00e9ographique de l\u2019Huile d\u2019Argane \u2013 the Moroccan Association of Argane Oil GI) with cooperatives of women working in argane production almost all along the production chain, from the collecting of the raw material through all steps of the process. Argane valorisation through the GI is proving t<strong>o be contributing to the reduction of economic precariousness, to the increasing of socio-economic conditions of women and their emancipation in Morocco. Argane oil is also contributing in fighting against consequences of climate change, since argan trees are acting as rampart against the encroachment of the desert.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finally, in the concluding panel the challenges and threats posed by internet and the matter of the <strong>Domain Name System<\/strong> have been tackled.<\/p>\n<p>2019 edition of Worldwide Symposium ended with an excursion to the Jos\u00e9 Maria da Fonseca Museum House and its ancient wine cellars, located in the Set\u00fabal Pen\u00ednsula region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From July 2nd to 4th, AREPO took part in the Worldwide Symposium on Geographical Indications, organised in Lisbon by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and the Portuguese Institute of Industrial Property (INPI) with the support of the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO).
