hereon, the authorities want to show us they have the situation under control again. at the plant were told that of course no one protested here. managing director at mon swore muhammad he guides us through his empire. spare parts for the german made machines are no longer available due to sanctions. suppliers from friendly countries such as russia or china have stepped in. so the sanctions hardly affect his business, unlike most of its customers. in one of us on behalf that we have customers in india to but they came and said we can't transfer money to you any more with an incident of the avant. instead, we can give you black fabric for your shadows or rice, but it is written. necessity is the mother of invention. not responded to the sanctions by finding new markets in asia and the middle east and grew despite all the problems. but the wave of protests is an expression of dissatisfaction any ran

count. this products contain ingredients from nature. ready but who do they really belong to? many companies have researched and used natural products for decades. some have even been patented, own, in the name of profane. but what about the indigenous peoples on whose knowledge these prophets, when i. ready don't they deserve a fashion i to glue. ready bio prospecting is defined in a united nations document as the exploration of plant and animal species, the utilization of their genetic resources. it basically describes companies and institutions looking for new natural substances to use in that product. then in recent decades, it's, it's pharmaceutical companies. it's bias that companies viagra, cultural companies can we're chemical companies as well. are claiming intellectual property rights relating to lourdes. the research and development that they've been
3:39 am
doing, and they're doing that through payton's. the idea is that new inventions cost companies time and money and research to help them make that back. patrons give them exclusive, right? so for that innovation, for a set period of time than brought in that the should have a bad system or bid, ah, the industries i'd appreciate it for did is it, but it becomes more problematic when traditional knowledge of communities is involved. take the name tree, known as the tree of life in india. it has vast medicinal and healing properties, and it can also be used to make organic pesticides and fungus sites. in 1995 us multinational, w r. grace was granted a european patent for name will used as part of it, so gannet fungicide, mnemic for a brand worth over $60000000.00 per year. according to a 2008 report indigenous communities in india had already been using name oil as
3:40 am
a fungus site for centuries. but others profited from then knowledge the appropriation and commercialization of genetic resources like plant tack strikes and indigenous knowledge for profit. this is whereby a prospecting can turn into bio piracy. companies use patents to protect innovations without fair compensation for communities, whether genetic material and knowledge comes from. there should be a balance between the advancement in technology and also what is entre if not it should be preserved. it should not be misappropriated. ah, it took 10 years for the european patent on the use of the name compound to be overturned. but this is far from a typical outcome for indigenous communities. they often lack the funds and support to fight payton. and there are other problems too. it can also be harmful to buy a diversity hootie or gordon. i is a plant fountain,

3:42 am
opportunity, so people came out and sort of decided they were going to make money off off on the removal of this plan. the sale of this plan who dea has had to be protected and south africa namibia, illegal harvesting is one of the main threats against the plant. it took until the early 2, thousands for the fan people to become aware of the cfo patent. with help from n g o is the community successfully campaigned for the role of their traditional knowledge to be acknowledged under a benefit sharing agreement, they were to receive milestone of royalty payments. it's not clear how many cases of bio piracy there have been. the united nations has tried to instigate a solution under its convention on biological diversity. the aim of the nagoya protocol is to share benefits from bio prospecting with indigenous communities.

3:45 am
will remain very important in the future. but it has to be done in a way that is fair to the biodiversity rich nations where these solutions are found . one way is by creating guidelines on what can be patented and how companies and research institutions should work with indigenous and local researchers, developers and marketing. working together gifts, both local communities and companies alike, the opportunity to profit. it also ensures the protection of the species providing us with the means to make advancements in technology, health, food security, and beyond access to clean drinking water is a human right? yeah, it's around 2000000000 people around the world. don't have it. this most important resource has long been big business, something food producers are well aware of. in 2023 in the industry expects to
