American University Washington College of Law's Program and Information Justice and Intellectual Property and the American University International Law Review ("AUILR") will be conducting a symposium for the AUILR Focus Issue on International and Comparative User Rights in the Digital Economy. The Issue will present articles exploring how law and policy can play a key role in breaking down barriers to full participation in the digital economy through expansions of user rights - the rights of users to access, use and transform digital content to further social, economic, cultural and political purposes. EFF will be attending both this event, and a private partners' event on the preceding day, to present and seek feedback on our current work on the global spread of fair use.
