"content": "More than 90 per cent of all published material in the world is not accessible to the blind or partially sighted individuals. We need to produce these materials in accessible formats such as braille; large prints or audio edition but the current copyright rules do not allow this. This also limits the number of books to which blind students can have access to, to further their studies and training. The World Blind Union (WBU), an organisation bringing together all organisations of unions of the blind globally has led the international campaign in partnership with the WIPO to achieve the development of the Marrakesh Treaty and put an end to the current thirst for books and knowledge. The Marrakesh Treaty has been ratified so far by 20 countries – the number needed for it to enter into force and allow for an increase of materials in accessible formats through cross- border sharing and the increased production of books in more countries."
