The webinar was co-hosted by the National Institute of Genetics of Japan, and the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) of Indonesia. About 100 participants from across the Asia-Pacific region exchanged views on the implementation of the DSI MLM and its Cali Fund ahead of CBD COP17. The discussion was explicitly framed as an informal exchange rather than an attempt to develop a common regional position. Participants broadly agreed that the priority at COP17 should be to move from the architecture established by Decision 16/2 towards practical implementation, while preserving open access to DSI and ensuring that benefit sharing contributes meaningfully to conservation, sustainable use and capacity development.
