520 _aThe inherited Knowledge passed through generations in the field of art, literature, cultural practices etc can be termed as Traditional Knowledge. There exists a definite need to protect and preserve this knowledge for the better present and transfer it to the next generation. This traditional knowledge can be preserved with the help of the law of intellectual property rights. In the past few decades there have been extensive efforts across the world for the protection, promotion and preservation of the same. World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) plays a prominent role in this regard. Under the realm of Intellectual Property Laws, granting of Geographical Indications has been found as the best possible solution. Geographical Indications and Traditional Knowledge are complementary to each other. Geographical Indications acts as a tool in protecting Traditional Knowledge and encourages the communities with such knowledge to continue to practice and promote the same to their future generations. It helps to bridge the gap between the older generations of the society and the upcoming generations. – Reproduced
