The open access publication of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation. This comprehensive book explores how traditional knowledge (TK) intersects with global intellectual and ecological discussions within the framework of intellectual property rights (IPRs). It provides practical solutions for local communities, indigenous peoples, and policymakers to protect and utilize TK effectively, including a detailed case study on Persian Carpets. Drawing on unique insights from key international organizations such as WIPO, WTO, and UNESCO, this book is an indispensable resource for legal scholars, students, and practitioners seeking to understand and strengthen TK protection under IPRs. The reader will discover strategies to prevent TK misappropriation and promote fair legal frameworks worldwide.
