The report emphasises the importance of respecting the rights of and supporting smallholder and local oil production systems due to their positive socio-economic outcomes and contribution to food security. The report acknowledges that within each vegetable oil system, there are both good and bad actors and outcomes, and urges for a nuanced perspective.

El informe hace hincapié en la importancia de respetar y apoyar los derechos de los pequeños agricultores y los sistemas locales de producción de aceite por sus resultados socioeconómicos positivos y su  contribución a la seguridad alimentaria. El informe reconoce que dentro de cada sistema de aceite vegetal hay tanto actores como resultados buenos y malos, e insta a adoptar una perspectiva matizada.

In 2016, the term UUU (unselective, unsustainable and unmonitored) fishing was developed and a Resolution of the World Conservation Congress, adopted by Members, tasked IUCN’s Species Survival Commission with reporting on the concept. The resulting situation analysis utilises the trawl fisheries of China, Thailand and Vietnam to explore how some of the issues associated with UUU fishing can be linked back to these three elements.

Au cours des dernières années, la biologie de synthèse est apparue comme un ensemble de techniques et de technologies permettant à l’homme de lire, interpréter, modifier, concevoir et fabriquer de l’ADN, afin d’influencer rapidement les formes et les fonctions des cellules et des organismes et, potentiellement, des espèces et des écosystèmes entiers.

En los últimos años, la biología sintética ha surgido como un conjunto de técnicas y tecnologías que permiten a los seres humanos leer, interpretar, modificar, diseñar y producir ADN para influir rápidamente en las formas y funciones de las células y los organismos, con el potencial de llegar a especies y ecosistemas enteros. A medida que la biología sintética sigue evolucionando, surgen nuevas herramientas, se proponen nuevas aplicaciones y se aplica l

In recent years synthetic biology has emerged as a suite of techniques and technologies that enable humans to read, interpret, modify, design and manufacture DNA in order to rapidly influence the forms and functions of cells and organisms, with the potential to reach whole species and ecosystems. As synthetic biology continues to evolve, new tools emerge, novel applications are proposed, and basic research is applied.
