Blog on Socio-economics, Biosafety and Decision Making
June 17, 2011| |
A new blog "Socio-Economics, Biosafety and Decision Making" developed by Jose Falck-Zepeda and colleagues at the International Food Policy Research Institute is available at https://socioeconomicbiosafety.wordpress.com/
It contains opinion pieces, summaries of socio-economic impact work and publications, description of tools and methods, event announcements, and description of ongoing projects. According to the developers, the blog also has "useful information that can inform countries as they prepare for the COP-MOP6 in India, especially for those discussions related to Article 26.1 of the Cartagena Protocol and National/regional regulatory developments."
