Project Summary
This project is proposed to be implemented either as an in-person workshop or as a series of online discussion seminars on the margins of the 2026 APEC HLPDAB plenary meeting. Recombinant DNA and genome edited plant, animal, and microbial products continue to be developed in APEC economies. As elucidated in the Policy Approaches Document, cooperation among stakeholders in the agricultural biotechnology ecosystem within and among APEC economies is critical to commercialization and unimpeded trade of these products. This workshop is/The discussion seminars are intended to support conversations to increase regulatory coordination and streamline approval processes in APEC economies. The workshop/seminars will provide a forum for economies to engage in discussions on issues in agricultural biotechnology and think about solutions which can contribute towards lowering costs and increasing economic prosperity within the APEC region.
