[Conceptual map of public health and intellectual property in Cuba: 2020 updateMapa conceitual sobre saúde pública e propriedade intelectual em Cuba: atualização de 2020]. / Mapa conceptual sobre salud pública y propiedad intelectual en Cuba: actualización 2020.

This study identifies and describes the changes introduced in Cuba's constitutional and legal framework, and the country's economic and social policy between 2015 and 2020, in terms of the effects on access to health. The conceptual map of public health and intellectual property in Cuba was also updated. A document search for the time period of the study was conducted in the Official Gazette of the Republic of Cuba and on the webpages of the Cuban Office of Industrial Property, Cuban government agencies, and the Cuban Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Industries group (BioCubaFarma). The updated conceptual map reflects amendments to the new Constitution of the Republic of Cuba adopted in 2019, updated guidelines on economic and social policy for the quinquennium 2016-2021, and laws, decrees, and legal provisions adopted in the period 2015-2020 in relation to intellectual property. The approved policy on the industrial property system was strengthened with specific legislation to protect industrial property, especially for the protection of the results obtained by the Cuban biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry. The changes reflected in the updated conceptual map favor interactions and synergy among the various actors that affect the Cuban population's access to health in the broadest sense.

Neste estudo, procuramos identificar e descrever as mudanças introduzidas no quadro constitucional e legal e na política econômica e social de Cuba entre 2015 e 2020 que afetam o acesso à saúde, bem como atualizar o mapa conceitual sobre saúde pública e propriedade intelectual em Cuba (MC SPPIC). Realizamos uma busca em documentos, ajustada ao período analisado, no Diário Oficial da República de Cuba e nos sites do Escritório Cubano de Propriedade Industrial, dos órgãos da Administração Central do Estado e do grupo da indústria biotecnológica e farmacêutica BioCubaFarma. O MC SPPIC atualizado reflete as mudanças na nova Constituição da República de Cuba adotada em 2019, a atualização das Diretrizes de Política Econômica e Social para o quinquênio 2016-2021 e as leis, decretos-lei e outras disposições legais relacionadas à propriedade intelectual no período 2015-2020. A Política sobre o Sistema de Propriedade Industrial, adotada previamente, foi fortalecida com legislação específica para a proteção da propriedade industrial, especialmente no que diz respeito à proteção dos resultados obtidos pela indústria biotecnológica e farmacêutica cubana. As mudanças refletidas no MC SPPIC atualizado favorecem a interação e sinergia entre os diversos atores que influenciam o acesso à saúde ­ em seu sentido mais amplo ­ por parte da população cubana.

[RESUMEN]. En este estudio se identifican y describen los cambios introducidos en el entramado constitucional y legal, y la política económica y social de Cuba entre los años 2015 y 2020 que inciden en el acceso a la salud y se actualiza el mapa conceptual sobre salud pública y propiedad intelectual en Cuba (MC SPPIC). Se realizó la búsqueda de documentos, ajustada al período de tiempo analizado, en la Gaceta Oficial de la República de Cuba y los sitios en Internet de la Oficina Cubana de la Propiedad Industrial, los organismos de la Administración Central del Estado y del Grupo de las Industrias Biotecnológica y Farmacéutica BioCubaFarma. El MC SPPIC actualizado refleja los cambios en la nueva Constitución de la República de Cuba adoptada en 2019, la actualización de los Lineamientos de la Política Económica y Social para el quinquenio 2016-2021 y las leyes, decretos leyes y otras disposiciones legales relacionados con la propiedad intelectual en el período 2015-2020. La Política sobre el Sistema de Propiedad Industrial aprobada se fortaleció con legislaciones específicas para la protección de la propiedad industrial, en especial las que inciden en la protección de los resultados obtenidos por la industria biotecnológica y farmacéutica cubana. Los cambios reflejados en el MC SPPIC actualizado favorecen la interacción y la sinergia entre los diversos actores que inciden en el acceso a la salud —en su sentido más amplio— de la población cubana.
