Response of Brazil, Ecuador, Mexico and Paraguay to US proposal at WIPO open-consultations
Open-ended consultations on copyright limitations and exceptions for persons with print disabilities
Geneva, May 27, 2010
Mr. Chairman,
Yesterday, during the first round of the consultations, Brazil recalled the reasons why there is an urgent need for a treaty on Improved Access for Blind, Visually Impaired and other Reading Disabled Persons. As civil society representatives were not present yesterday, I will recall some of the main points Brazil holds dear in these discussions.
