Unitaid has funded several projects related to intellectual property for HIV, HCV, and TB medicines since 2010. The first project provided over $56 million to the Medicines Patent Pool to negotiate voluntary licenses for HIV medicines and expand to HCV and TB. Other projects supported using TRIPS flexibilities like opposition of patent applications in India, Argentina, Brazil, Thailand and Ukraine. Unitaid is funding these IP projects because patents can limit access and affordability of medicines or block appropriate formulations, and TRIPS flexibilities provide solutions. The funding aligns with Unitaid's mandate to support countries using compulsory licensing or other TRIPS flexibilities when IP barriers limit competition and price reductions.

DNDi was created in 2003 to develop new treatments for neglected diseases like HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and sleeping sickness that disproportionately impact developing countries. It was founded by MSF and partners including research institutes from India, Kenya, Brazil, and Malaysia. DNDi uses a patient-needs driven model and has delivered 7 new treatments through over 160 partnerships worldwide. Its goal is to deliver 16-18 new treatments by 2023 and establish a robust pipeline of treatments as global public goods.
This document discusses how social movements often start with a single person taking a stand at a pivotal moment, such as Mohamed Bouazizi in Tunisia, Nelson Mandela in South Africa, and Mahatma Gandhi in India. It notes that movements need funding to continue but is unclear whether getting funding should be the goal or if funding will come as a result of actions. The document raises getting funding as both something necessary and something that results from movements.
This document discusses a donor's perspective on funding to eliminate intellectual property barriers that restrict access to HIV treatment. It notes that the donor organization, Aidsfonds, provides 1-2 million euros annually for international projects. Past funding has increased capacity for intellectual property issues in several countries. The rationale for supporting this work is that medicine prices are key to treatment access and many people living with HIV are in middle-income countries. There is also a clear need as few donors support this type of work, which could have a high impact by changing national policies and reducing prices. The document outlines some dilemmas in obtaining funding and measuring the effects of intellectual property projects.
This document discusses the importance of intellectual property (IP) work to ensure access to HIV and HCV treatment. It provides the following key points:
1. IPPCru has been monitoring government drug procurement in Russia since 2010 and their analytical reports are now considered the best available on treatment access in the region.
2. While HIV treatment coverage in Russia has increased from 15-20% in 2013 to 35-40% in 2017, 600,000 people still need treatment. Price reductions of 60-85% have occurred for generic drugs but patents until 2030 prevent generics and price reductions for other drugs.
3. IP work is important to challenge patents like the SOF patent in Russia to help lower prices and
Civil society groups have increasingly used patent oppositions across the world to challenge drug patents and improve access to medicines. Before 2006, such challenges only occurred in two countries, but now take place in nearly 50 countries. Civil society plays a unique and important role by providing technical and legal expertise for cases, mobilizing communities, and advocating for public health over private interests. Successful challenges in India against HIV drugs resulted in price reductions of 51-89% and potential cost savings of $500 million for lower-income countries. From 2014-2017, a coalition's legal interventions on 7 HIV drugs expanded access. Coordinating challenges globally in 2015 increased their impact and strategy sharing. Overall, patent oppositions led by civil society have significantly increased

The document discusses Egypt's patent opposition process according to Law No. 82 of 2002. It outlines that within 60 days of an application being published, concerned parties can submit a written opposition notice stating their reasons. Oppositions are examined by a committee and must be accompanied by a fee between 100-1000 pounds. The patent office must also send copies of applications relating to defense, security, military or health matters to the relevant ministry, which have 90 days to oppose publication or granting of the patent. Finally, the administrative tribunal can modify or remove patent data or repeal patents granted in violation of conditions.
GSIPA2M, Roundtable 4, Challenging unmerited patents - Jose Maria di BelloMakeMedicinesAffordable
The document discusses successes and challenges of civil society patent challenges in Argentina. It summarizes Fundación GEP's efforts to oppose patents and promote generic competition through legal challenges. This has led to significant price reductions for key HIV and hepatitis C medicines including Sofosbuvir. However, pharmaceutical companies continue submitting numerous patent applications, and civil society must defend patentability guidelines and promote the use of public interest safeguards in patent law.

UNDP law reform and recommendations of UN High Level panel on Access to Medicines.
Presented by Judit Rius Sanjuan, UNDP HIV, Health and Development Group.
The document discusses how Least Developed Countries (LDCs) in the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region are making use of transition periods allowed under the TRIPS agreement to facilitate access to medicines. While LDCs are allowed to ignore pharmaceutical patents until 2033, there is little evidence they are using TRIPS flexibilities. A few have issued compulsory licenses but many register patents through ARIPO. Barriers include a lack of political will, conflicting stakeholder interests, and bilateral agreements overriding TRIPS flexibilities. The document recommends strengthening regional cooperation through regulatory harmonization, pooled procurement, and technology transfers to build local pharmaceutical production capacity before 2033 transition periods expire.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.
