Copyright Association of Malawi explained
Copyright Association of Malawi (COSOMA) is a Malawian parastatal organization established in 1992 after the enactment of the Copyright Act of 1989.[1] [2] [3] Its main objective is promotion and protection of interest of composers, authors, performers, producers and broadcasters. COSOMA collects and distributes royalties[4] to the rights holders for their rights. The organization has two branches or offices: a Copyright office which is responsible for the implementation of the Copyright Act and a Collective Management Organization (CMO) that ensures collective management of musical, literary and artistic works.[5] [6] [7]
