ACTIVITÉS DE COOPÉRATION TECHNIQUE: RENSEIGNEMENTS  
FOURNIS PAR D'AUTRES ORGANISATIONS  
INTERGOUVERNEMENTALES  
ORGANISATION MONDIALE DE LA PROPRIÉTÉ INTELLECTUELLE (OMPI)  
Addendum  
À sa réunion des 4 et 5 juin 2018 , le Conseil des ADPIC est convenu d'inviter les organisations 
intergouvernementales ayant le statut d'observateur auprès de lui à actualiser les renseignements 
concernant leurs programmes de coopération technique et financ ière qui intéressent la mise en 
œuvre de l'Accord sur les ADPIC.  
Le présent document reproduit les renseignements que l'Organisation mondiale de la propriété 
intellectuelle (OMPI) a fournis dans une communication datée du 12 octobre 2018 .1 
 
_______________  
 
 
1.  La présente note a été établie pour donner suite à la demande que le Président du Conseil des 
ADPIC de l'Organisation mondiale du commerce (OMC) a adressée le 6 juillet  2018 à l'Organisation 
mondiale de la propriété intellectuelle (OMPI) et par laquelle  il l'invitait à fournir des renseignements 
actualisés sur ses activités de coopération technique, juridique et financière en rapport avec la mise 
en œuvre de l'Accord sur les ADPIC pour la réunion du Conseil des ADPIC prévue pour les 8 et 
9 novem bre 2018. 
2.  L'OMPI s'est engagée à fournir aux États Membres les conseils et l'assistance nécessaires pour 
ce qui concerne la mise en œuvre de l'Accord sur les ADPIC. À cette fin, elle répond régulièrement 
à des demandes d'assistance présentées par des pays en dévelo ppement, des pays moins avancés 
(PMA) et des pays en transition. L'assistance juridique et les activités et programmes de coopération 
technique se rapportant aux ADPIC entrent dans le cadre des dispositions de l'Accord conclu entre 
l'OMPI et l'OMC, et ont  été complété s par deux initiatives conjointes lancées par les directeurs 
généraux des deux organisations en juillet  1998 et en juin  2001, respectivement.  
3.  Durant la période comprise entre septembre 2017  et septembre 2018 , l'OMPI a fourni une 
assistance juri dique et technique aux États Membres pour les appuyer dans leurs efforts de mise en 
œuvre des obligations découlant de l'Accord sur les ADPIC ainsi que dans le contexte du Cadre de 
résultats de l'OMPI. Cette dernière a aidé les pays – principalement des pa ys en développement et 
des pays moins avancés – à élaborer et à mettre en œuvre des stratégies et des politiques visant à 
créer, à protéger, à gérer et à exploiter la propriété intellectuelle aux fins du développement 
économique, social et culturel. Elle a  aussi renforcé l'assistance qu'elle fournit à ces pays pour qu'ils 
intègrent la propriété intellectuelle dans le développement national global et dans les politiques 
publiques touchant des domaines tels que la santé, le commerce, l'éducation, la recherche , le 
transfert de technologie et la concurrence, y compris en leur fournissant des conseils sur les 
flexibilités prévues par les traités internationaux en matière de propriété intellectuelle, notamment 
par l'Accord sur les ADPIC.
