概要Overview
To access and use foreign genetic resources for research, it is important to abide by the relevant laws and regulations of the country providing the resources. Based on the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Nagoya Protocol on Access and Benefit-Sharing took effect in 2014 to regulate the sharing of benefits arising from the use of genetic resources between a provider country and a user country. The ABS support team provides a range of services to help researchers navigate the different laws and regulations among provider countries.
・Provide advice on ABS-related inquiries from researchers
・Provide ABS-related information and learning tools
・Organize workshops on ABS and other relevant rules
・Participate in relevant international conferences
