About the GI Atlas
The Advanced Study Institute of Asia at SGT University and the Intellectual Property Office had worked on the atlas “Tales of Tradition: The GI Atlas of India” on the occasion of World Intellectual Property Day.
The Geographical Indication Atlas of India visually celebrates the diversity of GI products across the country. Featuring a curated selection of agricultural goods, handicrafts, manufactured goods, foodstuffs and natural products, the atlas provides unique insights into the history, method of production, and geographical location of each product.
Shivani Singh and Khushi Kesari, are the curators who have meticulously crafted this atlas under the invaluable guidance of external expert reviewers Dr Prabuddha Ganguli, CEO ofVISION-IPR, Advisor and Adjunct Professor at IIT Jodhpur and Dr Annamma Samuel, DPIIT IPR Chair, Professor GNLU. It is a tribute to the weavers, artisans, farmers, and craftspeople who breathe life into each unique product.
