Hi all,

I've received an email from the organizers of the 3rd Global Congress on IP
& OpenAir Conference on Innovation & IP in Africa (
http://www.openair.org.za/capetown2013) which will take place from 9 to 13
December, in Cape Town, calling for participation from Wikimedia movement.

I've attended the Global Congress on IP in the the past, when I was leading
researches on the subject in Brazil, and they were an opportunity to engage
with other researchers, know better the global picture and problems of IP
and discuss global initiatives and threats among both global north and
global south perspectives.

Would there be anyone interested in participating of this meeting this year?

I strongly recommend people engaged in IP and international treaties
debates join them.

Perhaps someone from South Africa?

Best regards
Oona
