COMMUNICATION - ARTICLES

Since it’s inception in 2007, the CCP has emphasized public awareness and education about creators’ rights in various outlets and contexts, including events we’ve organized or attended, publications we’ve released, or advocacy initiatives in which we’ve participated.  That mission is no less important today, given the continued evolution of technological development throughout the past seventeen years and with individual creators finding it harder than ever to leverage themselves in an increasingly competitive content marketplace.  In addition to curating informational articles and secondary source reporting covering important trends and developments, we provide selective commentary and insight on specific topics from thought leaders and industry luminaries.

Here we compile topical information on various subjects and fields of information and report on past CCP activity for the purpose of educating content creators in an objective manner about promoting and protecting their works.
