In practice, the Marrakesh Treaty requires countries to amend their copyright laws to allow organizations to create accessible versions of books and other materials without seeking permission from the copyright holder. These organizations can then share these accessible materials across borders with other organizations that serve people with print disabilities. This increases the availability of accessible materials and reduces the delays and costs associated with obtaining copyright permissions.

Challenges in implementing the Marrakesh Treaty include:

• •Ensuring that national copyright laws are amended to fully comply with the treaty's provisions.
• •Establishing effective mechanisms for the cross-border exchange of accessible format copies.
• •Raising awareness among copyright holders and organizations about the treaty's benefits and requirements.
• •Addressing concerns about potential copyright infringement or misuse of accessible format copies.

India ratified the Marrakesh Treaty in 2014 and amended its Copyright Act, 1957 to incorporate the treaty's provisions. Like other countries, India allows the creation and distribution of accessible format copies for people with print disabilities. However, the specific mechanisms and enforcement may vary. Comparing India's approach with other countries involves examining the details of their respective copyright laws and the effectiveness of their implementation efforts.

The Marrakesh Treaty is significant for social justice and inclusion because it directly addresses the 'book famine' faced by people with print disabilities. By making it easier to create and share accessible format materials, the treaty promotes equal access to information, education, and culture. This empowers people with disabilities, enabling them to participate more fully in society and exercise their fundamental rights.
