WHO Discusses Traditional Medicine Governance in 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 held discussions at the WIPO Intergovernmental Committee on Intellectual Property and Genetic Resources on how traditional medicine knowledge should be governed as artificial intelligence becomes more widely used. The talks focus on protecting indigenous and community-held medical knowledge from misuse while allowing innovation, a growing concern as AI systems can extract and replicate such knowledge at scale.

Why now: AI's rapid spread is raising fresh questions about who controls and benefits from traditional medical knowledge, making the WIPO talks timely.
