Article 27 of the Universal Declaration provides that: “(]) Everyone has the right. freely to participate in the cultural life of the community, to enjoy the arts and to share in scientific advancement and its benefits; (2) Everyone has the right to the protection of the moral and material interests resulting from any scientific, literary or artistic production of which he is the author.” Intellectual property rights are those rights accorded to persons over the creations of their minds.
