The Group proposes that TA should be development-oriented , demand-driven , targeted , with time-frames for completion ; to develop and improve national institutional capacity through development of infrastructure ; to strengthen national capacity for protection of local creations ; to provide increased assistance to WIPO through donor funding for more activities in Africa ; to develop an effective review and evaluation mechanism ; establish an independent development impact assessment relating to TA , technology transfer and norm setting on developing countries and LDCs . If the same amount of money could somehow be bundled in assistance packages from the West to progressive Third World governments , the long-term development impacts could be markedly greater . While we will be working to give some direction on this front in the coming months , cultural heritage projects that have a peripheral development impact and large infrastructure projects that could easily attract private finance are some areas that come to mind . Yet , many barriers exist that make sending money expensive and limit the potential development impact of the funds . In particular , references were made on the need to establish an independent development impact assessment of the technical assistance that is being and will be provided by WIPO ; to develop appropriate measures to facilitate technology transfer , including the relaxation of patent rules ; for WIPO to assist developing and least-developed countries to use the flexibilities available in the international instrument ; to adopt an international instrument to deal with the problem of bio-piracy and an instrument to facilitate access to knowledge ; to improve civil society participation in WIPO activities ; and for WIPO to intensify cooperation with all UN agencies that deal with development issues . The session will also consider the technological developments impacting on NGN evolution and will examine various interworking functions and their implementation requirement .
