Which of the following is an international agreement aimed at sharing the benefits arising from the utilisation of genetic resources in fair and equitable way by appropriate access to genetic resources and appropriate transfer of relevant technologies ?
Nagoya protocol
The Nagoya Protocol (2010) on Access to Genetic Resources and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits Arising from their Utilization is a supplementary agreement to the Convention on Biological Diversity (1992). It provides for fair benefit sharing, appropriate access and transfer of relevant technologies. India implemented it through the Biological Diversity Act, 2002.
The Kyoto Protocol deals with greenhouse gas emission reduction; the Cartagena Protocol deals with biosafety and living modified organisms; there is no 'Rio protocol' on benefit sharing.
Hence, the answer is the Nagoya protocol.
