Biodiversity

Biological resources, and the knowledge associated with them, are governed in India by the Biological Diversity Act, 2002 — including access, benefit sharing and the role of Biodiversity Management Committees.

Our work

  • Support for People Biodiversity Registers.
  • Awareness for BMCs and local bodies on access and benefit sharing.
  • Guidance for researchers and firms on lawful access.
  • Conservation-linked documentation with communities.
