In many places, women are deemed to be the most important practitioners of certain old arts and the primary custodians of old ways of knowing, with many cultural ?traditions? being passed primarily or exclusively from one generation of women to the next. Therefore, the consequences of introducing IP regimes in this area may have special significance for women and their communities, or may reflect underlying assumptions about gender, women?s role in processes of decolonization and development, and the distributive consequences of IP regimes. The Roundtable will begin with comments by: Margaret Chon - Seattle University School of Law Danielle Conway - University of Hawaii School of Law Suzan Harjo - Morningstar Institute (invited) Moderated by: Peter Jaszi - American University Washington College of Law Upcoming PIJIP Events March 21, 2014 ? 10th Annual IP/Gender: Gender and the Regulation of Traditional Knowledge Info and Live Webcast<http://emarketing.wcl.american.edu/c/20807691/24843/6ZHwx7T/Mp2o?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pijip.org%2Fevents%2Fipg2014%2F> March 31, 2014 ?
