Tunisia's Parliament to hold study day on literary and artistic property law

Tunisia's Parliament of Representatives is set to host a study day on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, dedicated to examining a proposed law concerning literary and artistic property.

The session will focus on draft law No. 2024-47, which aims to amend and supplement the existing law from February 24, 1994, on literary and artistic property. The event will bring together members of parliament, experts, specialists, and representatives from relevant organizations.

The primary objective is to foster an exchange of viewpoints and develop concrete proposals regarding the legislation. Participants will also evaluate the potential repercussions of the proposed changes on the system for protecting works in Tunisia. The debate will delve into the proposed revisions and analyze the legal and legislative aspects related to copyright and neighboring rights protection.

This initiative is part of an ongoing effort to modernize Tunisia's intellectual property system. It seeks to adapt the current legal framework to the rapid changes within the cultural creation sector, including technological and digital advancements. The goal is to strengthen the guarantees and protections offered to creators and rights holders.
