II. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DEVELOPMENT AGENDA

Strategic Outcome	Outcome Indicators
Strong focus on the development throughout the organization	Strong focus on development throughout the organization, with effective mainstreaming of the Development Agenda principles and recommendations in the work of all relevant programs.

 

The WIPO Development Agenda represents a new, cross‑cutting approach to addressing the development dimension of all WIPO’s work. It provides a unique opportunity to reach beyond WIPO’s traditional technical assistance programs and to ensure that the Development Agenda principles and recommendations are integrated into the work of the entire Organization. The principles and Recommendations of the Development Agenda apply not only to activities carried out under Strategic Goal III, but to activities carried out under all nine Strategic Goals of the Organization. This is reflected in the respective narratives throughout the Medium Term Strategic Plan. The summary table on page 9 charts the linkages between the Strategic Goals and the 45 Recommendations of the Development Agenda.

 

Within the medium term, WIPO has the challenge of translating the Development Agenda aspirations into reality. This includes ensuring that the human and financial resources dedicated to the Development Agenda deliver value for the Member States, and that the results are evaluated and can demonstrate positive impact.

STRATEGIC GOAL I      Balanced Evolution of the International Normative Framework for Intellectual Property

 

This Strategic Goal aims to ensure that the development of international IP law keeps pace with the rapidly evolving global technological, geo-economic, social and cultural environment, while taking into account implementation of the recommendations of the Development Agenda on norm‑setting. A balanced evolution is critical to ensuring that the international intellectual property system continues to serve its fundamental purpose of encouraging innovation and creativity; that it takes into account the needs and interests of countries at different stages of development, including through the flexibilities within international IP agreements; and that it strikes the right balance between (i) the rights of creators and IP owners and the rights of users and the public; and (ii) the encouragement of innovation and creativity and the diffusion of the social benefit of innovation and creative works.
