examining laws in different
jurisdictions that link to
global value chains. Ipshita is
studying the pharmaceutical
sector and manufacturing of
Active Pharmaceutical
Ingredients in low income
economies that supply generic
drugs to the global market,
causing antimicrobial

biodiversity laws and access to
genetic resources,
benefit-sharing models,

| » |
security and rule of law
issues related to ocean law,
deep-sea mining and biodiversity
