Opis

This work addresses the complexity of the WTO's August 30, 2003 decision on the implementation of paragraph 6 of the Doha Declaration on the TRIPS Agreement and Public Health. It provides an explanation of the decision and model legal texts for the required notifications to the WTO and for the amendments of their patent law that most developing countries will need to pass in order to incorporate the decision in their domestic legal framework.
