The discussion about Marine Biological diversity of Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction(BBNJ) are being discussed in UN. Especially, The progress of such discussions can be confirmed through the chairman's document: Revised draft text of an agreement under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction. Among the main topics of such discussion in this negotiation, there is a very large gap of opinions on the subject of regulation. Nevertheless, the reality is that there is still a lack of research that reflects the positions of stakeholders on marine genetic resources in Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction(ABNJ) at the domestic level.In this article, we tried to confirm the position of domestic experts from a statistical point of view through a stakeholder survey on the subject of regulation of marine genetic resources in ABNJ. Regarding the regulatory targets of marine genetic resources in ABNJ, a majority of respondents showed the position that the scope should be reduced. There was a difference in the level of understanding regarding in situ/ex situ/in silico and access/collection, which are specific regulatory targets. The same confusion is also manifested in the 4th Intergovernmental Conference on an international legally binding instrument under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on the conservation and sustainable use of marine BBNJ.It is worth noting that the issue of the scope of the subject of regulation of BBNJ is ultimately directly related to the scope of benefit-sharing derived from BBNJ. If the scope of regulation becomes broader, the scope of benefit sharing will expand, and as a result, stakeholders, especially researchers and industries, are will be less willingness to invest in exploration activities for marine living resources in ABNJ. |
