During his 3-day visit, he met with a number of key leaders and engaged in high-level discussions regarding the role of intellectual property in ensuring that Tunisia reaches its economic development goals. This visit demonstrates WIPO's continued support for assisting African countries in advancing intellectual property rights.
As part of this official visit, the Director General also launched a project together with the National Office of Tunisian Handicrafts to support 40 female artisans in the Sfax region. This will not only encourage creative efforts and provide economic growth, but also preserve cultural heritage.
