Abstract

Since 1992, the diplomatic agenda concerning access to genetic resources and benefit-sharing runs through different multilateral arenas, such as the CBD, BBNJ, and Antarctica. Therefore, it is a unique opportunity for Brazil to promote its national model and to mobilize a coalition of like-minded countries to implement the distribution of monetary benefits, including those from the use of digital information sequencing.
