Description Technology transfer, capacity building, and information exchange are important
contributors to the accomplishment of the aims of the International Treaty on Plant
Genetic Resources for Agriculture (ITPGRA). These matters have been prioritized as
approaches to non-monetary benefit sharing in the treaty itself as well as in subsequent
decisions by the parties. This report examines practices and experiences among other
multilateral treaties for technology transfer, capacity building, and information exchange
to identify lessons and provide recommendations on how best to achieve these objectives
for the ITPGRA. Effort has been made to identify empirically-grounded evidence of what
has or has not worked for other treaties, rather than aiming for a comprehensive but
merely general survey of treaties that engage in such activities. The lessons identified
will be analyzed in light of the priorities and activities undertaken within the Treaty,
particularly through the two rounds of funding under the Benefit Sharing Fund (BSF).
