We investigate whether and how free or low-cost access to scientific publications through the UN-led Research For Life (R4L) initiative leads to more scientific publications and clinical trials of authors affiliated with research institutions in developing countries. We find that free or reduced-fee access to the health science literature through Hinari (WHO-led subprogramme) increases the scientific publication output and clinical trials output of institutions in developing countries. In contrast, once we control for selection bias, we do not find empirical support for a positive Hinari effect on knowledge spillovers and local institutions' research input into global patenting, as measured by paper citations in patent documents. Main findings can be generalized to other R4L subprogrammes and are likely to also apply to the WIPO-led Access to Research for Development and Innovation (ARDI) programme. 000049399 542__ $$fCC BY 4.0 000049399 650_4 $$aInnovation 000049399 650_0 $$aIntellectual property. 000049399 650_0 $$aPatents. 000049399 650_0 $$aCopyright. 000049399 7001_ $$aMueller-Langer, Frank,$$eauthor. 000049399 7001_ $$aMuscarnera, Alessio,$$eauthor. 000049399 7001_ $$aOguguo, Prince C.,$$eauthor. 000049399 7001_ $$aScheufen, Marc,$$eauthor. 000049399 7102_ $$aWorld Intellectual Property Organization. 000049399 830_0 $$aEconomics Working Papers ;$$vNo. 78/2024,$$x2957-8256. 000049399 8564_ $$y10.34667/tind.49399$$w7a4d1732-e2a7-445d-938b-e3a0032529f2$$s2397136$$fwipo-pub-econstat-wp-78-en-access-to-science-and-innovation-in-the-developing-world.pdf$$uhttps://tind.wipo.int/record/49399/files/wipo-pub-econstat-wp-78-en-access-to-science-and-innovation-in-the-developing-world.pdf 000049399 85641 $$uhttps://c.connectedviews.com/01/Player/WIPOwebinars/?s=123284&a=false$$yWebinar Recording 000049399 901__ $$aWIPO/PUB/ECONSTAT/WP/78 000049399 902__ $$a49399_en 000049399 903__ $$aEconomics Working Papers 000049399 904__ $$aWorking paper 000049399 909__ $$ooai:tind.wipo.int:49399$$pWIPOPUB 000049399 909__ $$ooai:tind.wipo.int:49399$$pWIPOPUB 000049399 909__ $$ooai:tind.wipo.int:49399$$pWIPOPUB 000049399 909CO $$ooai:tind.wipo.int:49399$$pWIPOPUB 000049399 980__ $$aWIPOPUB$$aERWP
