قرصنة الثروات الحيوية في ظل أحكام اتفاقية تريبس و اتفاقية التنوع البيولوجي

Abstract EN

The patent system aims to protect new innovations, including those that respond to life forms from organisms such as plants and animals, but this system has become a burden on developing countries, which have hacked all their vital wealth in the name of protecting global innovation.

The patent system was further strengthened as most countries adopted the TRIPS Agreement and inventions on living organisms became possible by developed countries, under pressure from multinationals Companies, all fields including food and medicine were monopolized; this contradicts in form and substance the provisions of the Convention on Biological Diversity, which aim to conserve and sustain biological resources and also to provide fair remuneration for any exploitation of such resources through sale or use and mention of the original source of the products.
