NOTE: UNDP has recently released a report entitled "Making Global Trade Work
for People". It was prepared by a team of experts coordinated by UNDP, with
the support of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, the Rockefeller Foundation,
UNDP itself, Ford Foundation, Heinrich B�ll Foundation and the Wallace
Global Fund. The report calls on governments to "replace" the World Trade
Organisation's agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property
Rights (TRIPS), and similar efforts to set high international standards for
IPR regimes in the South, with "alternate intellectual property paradigms"
delinked from trade sanctions.
