Guidelines for determining the regulatory process of genome editing techniques in Kenya.

These Guidelines determine the regulatory process of genome editing techniques through broad stakeholder consultations and review of regulatory mechanisms. The Guidelines apply to genome edited plants, animals and microorganisms. The Guidelines concern: examples of current methods used for genome editing; genome editing in relation to Genetically Modified Organisms, according to the provisions of the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (CPB) to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD); considerations for regulation of genome edited plants, animals and microorganisms; categories for regulation of genome editing techniques and derived products;
