LCIL International Law Centre PodcastLCIL Friday Lecture: 'Elephants not in the room: Decoupling, dematerialisation and dis-enclosure in the making of the BBNJ Treaty' - Dr Siva Thambisetty, LSELecture summary: This lecture examines the treatment of marine genetic resources (MGR) in the negotiations and the text of the new Treaty on Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ). The Treaty provides a coherent governance framework for MGR including an unexpected techno-fix to the most longstanding problem of biodiversity governance, some normative novelty on principles, and a trendsetting approach to valuation of aggregate usage of genetic resources. Yet, this painstakingly formed framework continues to be buffeted by self-interested attempts to redefine and relitigate the value of genetic resources; particularly around decoupling use from access to genetic resources, dematerialisation from physical...2024-04-1144 min
