Case Study – Bioprospecting in Suriname - The Suriname Project of the International Cooperative Biodiversity Group
This study examines a variety of innovative benefit-sharing mechanisms implemented in Suriname and demonstrates how they can be used in connection with bioprospecting to promote biodiversity conservation. The project started in 1993 and is expected to provide a long-term compensation sharing mechanism for revenues arising out of genetic resources and ethnobotanical knowledge.
