CLDP, together with advisors from the US PTO, US CBP, and the WCO, led a workshop on border identification and interdiction of counterfeit and pirated products on May 15-17, 2018, in Dushanbe, Tajikistan. Officials from the Tajik Customs Service and the Ministry of Economic Development engaged in discussion of the economic, health, and safety risk posed by counterfeits. Advisors introduced participants to international best practices in such topics as application/recordation, seizure of goods, whole-of-government coordination at the border, risk management, targeting, and destruction of infringing products. The workshop followed up an introductory program by CLDP, conducted in October, 2016 and builds upon the Tajik Governments efforts to raise awareness of Intellectual Property protection in the country. CLDP and its advisors made plans with those in attendance to return for additional program in November, 2018.
