| Research Abstract |
Access and benefit-sharing (ABS) issue was one of the main three objectives in the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). The ABS was adopted as the Nagoya Protocol on ABS in the COP10 of the CBD which was held in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan in 2010. In this study, the background of ABS negotiation and its main issues have been summarized based on the author's attendance in ABS negotiation meetings until the official adoption of the protocol. Also, it analyzed the ranking order of benefit-sharing constituents which may be one of the main issues of ABS practical implementation. The features identified in the ranking order revealed that while both the priority levels of scientific research and commercial use each differed, the monetary benefits, especially access fees, were ranked highly on the priority spectrum. In addition, the effectiveness analysis featured in this study suggests that an effective benefit-sharing can be achieved with a good combination of short-term and long-term benefits.
