[Nhcoll-l] ABS / Nagoya: status quo, challenges & opportunities

[Dirk Neumann]

Dear all,

in December, our article /‘Global biodiversity research tied up by 
juridical interpretations of access and benefit sharing’ 
<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__link.springer.com_epdf_10.1007_s13127-2D017-2D0347-2D1-3Fauthor-5Faccess-5Ftoken-3DCzIujmpuRt966soSM-2DxmwPe4RwlQNchNByi7wbcMAY4CTz7vagIx7hrQ3mVHe-5FfOH4k0O2tCwif8wY9oOoWosBHaGxfuwj2L7jZmeoeaTQYowEeHOUxk1hxVk9-2Dn6osXiW5AbdbYTiK1JhiE1BztTw-253D-253D&d=DwIDaQ&c=cjytLXgP8ixuoHflwc-poQ&r=LpYc_Z_iN1KRw0hheb3x6-8MJUMu482qfHowpGYJqwc&m=7ITiFvg1P_X1QMrdBEKRYF30go0yOSvLRoZTr8TJ2u4&s=Vz_2FqxK6PcE1MWsJbMKrJqyItBXot9CIOhyOkVu09A&e=>/ 
has been published in /*Organisms Diversity & Evolution*/. Springer 
grants free access to this article until 28 February.

Our article profited from discussions at ABS-workshops held at SPNHC 
conferences in Cardiff, Berlin and Denver and work in the Legislations & 
Regulations Committee. It further profited from the work of the ABS 
working groups of CETAF (Consortium of European Taxonomic Facilities), 
the close exchange with the Global Genome Biodiversity Network (GGBN) 
and from practical feedback the authors received during various 
workshops and meeting dealing with ABS.

Really appreciated the lively discussions during SPNHC conferences which 
helped to shape this article.

Maybe you will find this useful.

All the best

Dirk

***********************

some details:

The article takes the perspective of Natural History Collections, which 
- as you may know - are deeply engaged in research collaborations with 
providers of GR in many countries which support the initial aims of ABS 
to conserve biodiversity and to promote the sustainable use of the 
world's biodiversity. Our article summarises recent developments 
resulting from the entering into force of the NP on 12 Oct 2014, the 
European regulation (EU) No. 511/2014  on ABS, and how they will impact 
on natural history collections and biodiversity research globally (not 
only in Europe, but also in North America).

It includes knowledge and experience from close contacts and the 
feedback on ABS-related issues from major natural history collection in 
Europe and the United States and from the international DNA-barcoding 
community. We evaluate practical challenges and implications for 
biodiversity researchers and collections and suggest the formation of 
ABS-compliant international networks to support monitoring and to enable 
a simplified exchange of genetic resources which ultimately results in 
the promotion of CBD-compliant biosciences.
