The paper summarizes the history of the development of the guidance on risk assessment, including the roadmap under the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety since 2008 until now. The aim and the contents of the roadmap for risk assessment of living modified organisms (LMOs) are described, in particular the five steps in the risk assessment process. After several rounds of discussions at the expert and political level, the guidance including the roadmap is currently revised taking into account the results of an in-depth practical testing process by the Parties, Non-Parties, and relevant organizations. The aim is to provide an improved version of the guidance for endorsement and broad support by the next meeting of the Parties to the Cartagena Protocol in December 2016.
本文总结了风险评估指南的发展历史,包括自 2008 年以来《卡塔赫纳生物安全议定书》下的路线图。本文描述了针对改性活生物体风险评估的路线图的目标和内容,特别是风险评估过程中的五个步骤。在专家和政治层面进行了几轮讨论后,目前正在根据各缔约方、非缔约方和相关组织深入实际测试过程的结果修订该指南和路线图。其目的是为 2016 年 12 月《卡塔赫纳生物安全议定书》缔约方下一次会议提供经改进的指南版本,以获得其认可和广泛支持。
