The overall objective of the project is to further support the role of Kosovo on economic governance through effective regulatory functions in line with SAA obligations, in order to ensure a level of protection and respect for IPR equivalent to that which exists in the EU (in accordance with Article 77 and Article 78 of the SAA).
The specific objectives of the project are to strengthen the legal, administrative and structural capacities of Kosovo institutions in charge of the development and enforcement of intellectual property rights (IPRs). The project will further align the Kosovo (primary and secondary) legislations on IPRs with the EU acquis and support monitoring international legal developments that may impact its legislation in the field of IPRs. The project will also contribute to the awareness raising on the importance of IPR protection.
