ILO offers a clinic on the cooperative model for women entrepreneurs from indigenous and local communities at WIPO training
ILO contributed to the 2023-2024 edition of the WIPO training, mentoring and matchmaking programme on intellectual property for women entrepreneurs from indigenous peoples and local communities.

Mr Rayann Koudaih, ILO Technical Officer on Cooperatives and Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) Development, and Ms Marian Boquiren, ILO Senior Master Trainer on Cooperative Development provided the clinic, as part of the WIPO Training, Mentoring and Match-Making Program for Women Entrepreneurs from Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities. The clinic included an interactive orientation session on business groups and cooperatives for use by women entrepreneurs to help them grow their businesses and create decent jobs.

This was the third edition of the WIPO programme that the ILO has contributed to through a training session. See here ILO contributions for the 2019 and 2021 editions of the programme. See ILO COOP/SSE brief on cooperatives and indigenous peoples here.
