ITRC is a Public Policy, Research, Analysis, and Engagement Organization (PPRAEO) think tank. <br \/><br \/>Since the establishment of the Africa IP Centre, the main objective of the Centre has been to support and strengthen the institutional capacity of the IP system in Africa by advocating for African governments to formulate and implement comprehensive IP policies that will ensure IP works for Africans and Africa. The Centre believes that through stakeholders\u2019 collaboration, IP can effectively promote socio-economic development and livelihood in Africa. Over the years, the Africa IP Centre has been hosting Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) dialogues and All Africa IP Conferences, which are end-of-the-year town hall
