The TRIPS agreement faces criticism because it increases the value of intellectual property, granting more privileges to dominant industry leaders and hindering developing countries. Some of the major criticisms from developing countries include implementation challenges, geographical indications, protection of local knowledge, and technology accessibility. The first difficulty is that it remains difficult to implement TRIPS outlined structure and policies for developing countries that lack the resources and support to fully and effectively implement the agreement. Additionally, geographical indications, which are similar to trademarks but differ by including specific countries and boundaries, limit the scope of intellectual property protection to few, specific categories. This is viewed as an unfair advantage by developing countries, who have less protection of their local goods and industries. Similarly, these countries claim that TRIPS does not hold up policies under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), offering little protection for cultural customs and information, for example, the patents for herbal medicine from India or the wide-spread selling of Basmati rice.
