WHO and partners debate traditional medicine knowledge governance for the AI era

Original: WHO and partners discuss governance of traditional medicine knowledge in the AI era at WIPO-IGC

The World Health Organization and partner organisations discussed how traditional medicine knowledge should be governed as artificial intelligence expands its use, at the World Intellectual Property Organization's Intergovernmental Committee (WIPO-IGC). The talks centre on protecting indigenous and community-held medical knowledge from exploitation while enabling its use in AI-driven research, an issue tied to ongoing negotiations on genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge.

Why now: AI development is raising fresh concerns over ownership, consent and benefit-sharing for traditional medicine knowledge.
