Non-monetary benefit sharing mechanisms within the projects funded by the Benefit Sharing Fund
This study presents and overview of the projects that have been funded by or proposed to the
Benefit-sharing Fund (BSF) under the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food
and Agriculture (ITPRFA). In particular, the study focusses on the technology transfer, capacity
building and information exchange-related activities that are included in those projects.
Through the analysis, we address the following issues:
- The geographic scope of projects, and the activities and partnerships within them;
- The types of technologies, capacities and information being generated and transferred;
- The actors involved in the co-development and transfer of technologies, capacities and
information); and,
- Situations in which technology transfer, capacity building and information exchange are
pursued or promoted together as part of a package and when they are pursued or
promoted independently of each other
