"The book offers practical guidance on how to arrive at equitable biodiversity research and prospecting partnerships. Drawing on experience and lessons learned from around the world, it provides case studies, analysis and recommendations in a range of areas that together form a new framework for creating equity in these partnersips. They include researcher codes of ethics, institutional policies, community research agreements, the design of more effective commercial pertnerships and biodiversity prospecting contracts, the drafting and implementation of national "access and benefit-sharing' laws, and the institutional tools for the distribution of financial benefits."--Back cover |
