- Shows how the geographical indication instrument itself can be used in highly diverse ways at product level, thus adding to the richness of the instrument
- Helps assess the multifaceted nature of geographical indications proposed as an instrument for strengthening and securing market access and for promoting rural development, and also for conserving biodiversity and indigenous knowledge
