Authors : Bakdi Doudja .

Abstract

The Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights TRIPS has focused on the geographical indications GIs by adopting new provisions, in addition to those of Paris and Lisbon Treaties, to foster the objective protection and impose an additional protection of some indications because of their paramount role in the sustainable development. In this regard, GIs ensure quality, show the origin of goods, and have local and international economic vitality. Therefore, we decided to study how TRIPS covered them by tackling their concept and protection conditions.
