Exploring Copyrights in a growing Creative Industry

With the rise of digital content, music, visual arts, and tech-driven innovations, many African creatives are producing world-class work—yet remain vulnerable due to limited knowledge about copyright laws and enforcement. This webinar sought to bridge that gap by equipping participants with a clear understanding of what copyrights are, why they matter, and how to secure their rights in a rapidly evolving market.

Participants learned about copyright registration, ownership, infringement, fair use, and the practical steps creatives can take to protect their work both locally and internationally. Beyond legal definitions, the session unpacked real-world scenarios, answered participant questions, and offered tools creatives can use to confidently navigate contracts, collaborations, and content sharing in the digital age.

Whether you're a content creator, designer, musician, software developer, or simply curious about intellectual property law, this session provided eye-opening education and empowerment to ensure that creativity is not only expressed—but also safeguarded.
