The online self-study course introduces the key international frameworks relevant to biodiversity research, genetic resources, specimen transport, and Indigenous knowledge and data governance.
Participants will learn the basic principles and practical implications of:
the Nagoya Protocol and Access and Benefit-Sharing (ABS),
CITES regulations for international transport of species and specimens,
the CARE Principles and UNDRIP in the context of Indigenous rights and data governance.
The course explains core concepts, common procedures, and practical research scenarios, including the use of relevant online resources such as the ABS Clearing-House and Species+ databases.
Upon completion of the course, participants should be able to identify which frameworks may apply to their own research projects, understand key compliance and ethical considerations, and navigate essential information resources independently.
