As a president of NIFoS, it is a great pleasure that IUFRO, APAFRI, National Institute of Forest Science (NIFoS), co-host the 10th Conference on Tradi- tional Forest Knowledge and Culture, especially in the meaning of commem- oration on the 10th meeting of this Network. Let me extend my gratitude to Prof. Liu JinLong of Renmin University of Chi- na, Prof. KoShaka Ryo of Tohoku University of Japan, Prof. Youn Yeo- Chang of Seoul National University, Korea, Dr. Sim Heok Choh & Dr. Gan Kee-Seng of APAFRI, Prof. Monica Gabay of National University of San Martin of Argentina and participants for attending this conference. Also, I would like to thank moderators, speakers and all the distinguished guests for being here with us today. This conference on TFK goes back to the first time pre-meeting on TFK, starting at Kunming in November 2007. Due to the continued attention and concerns of China, Japan, Korea and ASEAN Countries, this 10th conference has come to be here at this Seoul National University. Thanks again Prof. Liu JinLong and Prof. Youn Yeo-Chang who had founded this network. Most countries over the world have come to recognize the decrease of bio- diversity and they have been arguing and debating the importance of biodi- versity at the COP meeting of Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). Also, The Nagoya Protocol on Access to Genetic Resources and the fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from their utilization to the Convention on Biological Diversity is an international agreement which aims at sharing the benefits arising from the utilization of genetic resources in a fair and equitable way. - VI - Opening Address On Friday, 19 May 2017, the Republic of Korea became the 98th country to ratify the Nagoya Protocol. Korea Forest Service also prepares the legislative and administrative measurements for implementation of Nagoya Protocol in next year. In this perspective, this 10th conference will provide the platform for the practical sharing and communication of TFK among participated coun- tries. Two thirds of the world’s indigenous peoples, 260 millions of indigenous people live at Asian Region; these indigenous people have been transcend- ing the treasure and wisdom of traditional forest knowledge. Recognition of intellectual property rights (IPRs) over traditional knowledge (TK) held by indigenous peo¬ples and local communities (ILCs), particularly TK associated with biodiversity and genetic resources (GRs), is an important step in actualizing sustainable development. TFK can be linked to the SDGs’ targets, # 2, the achievement of food secu- rity, # 6 the sustainable management of water, and # 15 the protection and restoration and sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems and biodiversity. Among them, target of food security cannot be emphasized too much for sovereignty and safety for peoples in each country.
