A workshop on improving access to accessible format copies of published works for people with print disabilities was held in Hanoi on October 8.
Vietnam’s participation in and implementation of the Marrakesh Treaty will be useful to promoting the disabled’s access to a richer diversity of publications, said Pham Thi Kim Oanh, deputy director of the Copyright Office of Vietnam under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
A document on Vietnam’s participation in the Marrakesh Treaty to Facilitate Access to Published Works for Persons Who Are Blind, Visually Impaired, or Otherwise Print Disabled has been handed over to Director General of the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) Daren Tang for legal copyrighting.
