Invasive alien species in the Lower Mekong Basin : current state of play
   

Currently there is a deficit of information on the impacts of invasive alien species (IAS) within the community, key sector groups and governments of these countries. Most often, the problem is not recognised until the invasion becomes noticeable nor has ecological, economic or social consequences. While the Lower Mekong Basin (LMB) nations have made some progress in addressing IAS, much remains to be done in terms of, implementing successful management strategies and awareness and capacity building. The Mekong Wetlands Biodiversity Conservation and Sustainable Use Programme (MWBP) will devise a regional strategy to address the existing and potential impacts of IAS in the LMB. This preliminary report is the first step in moving towards developing a strategy to manage IAS issues in the LMB.

Las discusiones sobre la protección de los conocimientos tradicionales tienen implicaciones directas en áreas estratégicas de la economía y la política, como el uso sostenible y el manejo de la biodiversidad, la seguridad alimentaria, la salud pública, el comercio internacional, la responsabilidad y la ética empresarial, los derechos humanos, la investigación científica, la distribución de la riqueza. El libro tiene el propósito de ofrecer un análisis de los avances normativos en el contexto internacional, una evaluación del estado de protección de los conocimientos tradicionales en 10 países de América Latina en base a estudios de caso. También ofrece una reflexión del rol del derecho consuetudinario o derecho propio en los diseños normativos de protección de los sistemas de conocimiento tradicional. Finalmente aporta una serie de recomendaciones prácticas, sugiere medidas e instrumentos para contribuir el establecimiento y aplicación de marcos jurídico-institucionales que favorezcan el mantenimiento y revitalización de los sistemas de conocimiento ancestral.
