Hintergrund

Deutschland kolonisierte 1884 Ruanda als Teil Deutsch-Ostafrikas. Nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg überließ Deutschland das Gebiet Belgien, das es als Teil des Territoriums von Ruanda-Urundi verwaltete. Burundi und Ruanda wurden 1962 unabhängige Länder.

Ruanda ist seit dem 1. März 1984 Mitglied der Berner Übereinkunft und seit dem 22. Mai 1996 der Welthandelsorganisation.[1]

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Law No. 31/2009 of 26/10/2009 on the Protection of Intellectual Property as the main IP law enacted by the legislature of Rwanda.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2] The law is retroactive: "Repeal of former provisions contrary to this Law ... the Law No 27/1983 of November 15th, 1983 governing the copyrights ... and any other former legal provisions contrary to this Law are hereby repealed".[31/2009 Article 294]
