Rwanda Arts Initiative - RAI, a non-governmental and non-profit organization committed to the professionalization of the cultural industries, proposes to support the implementation of IP rights in the cultural and creative industries (CCI) by: (1) collecting and centralizing data on public and private organizations working on the protection of IP rights in CCI; (2) bringing stakeholders together to design an online platform that facilitates communication and collaboration in the implementation of IP law; (3) raising awareness of IP rights in CCI.

• Strengthens cross-sectoral cooperation in the implementation of IP law in Rwanda – The project has been designed and will be implemented with the participation of different public institutions working on the administration and enforcement of IP rights in Rwanda, namely the Ministry of Sport and Culture (MINISPOC), the Ministry of Trade and Industries (MINICOM), the Rwanda Development Board (RDB), and the Rwanda Society of Authors (RSAU). 
• Strengthens processes and mechanisms for the implementation of IP law – The online platform will provide access to a directory of organizations working on IP rights for CCI, as well as to documents, strategies and information relative to the protection of IP rights in the CCI.
