The Andean Community countries, with a wide typology of tangible and intangible assets that link the past with the present and the future, are among the nations most seriously threatened by illicit trafficking in cultural property. In this context, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru have joined forces to protect, prevent and combat such trafficking, aware that this is a task that requires commitment and participation of the entire community at the national level and joint efforts at the regional level, especially in the case of the Andean countries whose origin, history and culture are common.

Article. Culture & Development No. 9.
It is difficult to predict, without fearing speculation, what creation and dissemination modalities will prevail on the market and whether or not it will be necessary to reformulate the copyright system in the future. For the time being, copyright is playing its original role and will continue to do so without any need for structural reforms. The ideal mechanism to deal with a change in paradigm may well be to promote a culture of respect for copyright, strengthen cultural industries and Wiki communities, empower creators and consumers, and provide copyright organizations and web surfers with incentives.
