They describe the problem of biodiversity loss, chart how the biodiversity agenda has expanded to include many other concerns such as access to genetic resources, intellectual property rights, and biotechnology, and review the operation of the CBD and its prospects. They also analyze the prospects for future implementation. The authors caution that while the need for a comprehensive approach is important, the core issues that first inspired creation of the Convention -- the preservation, conservation, and utilization of biological resources -- risk being overshadowed by conflicts engendered by the agenda's expansion. date: 1996 date_type: published publisher: RR-96-015.
