| dc.description | Forest invasive species are non-native pests, pathogens and plants that are introduced either unintentionally or intentionally to an ecosystem, having a significant environmental, economic, and/or socio-cultural impact. FAO is addressing the pressing global issue of invasive species in several ways including: producing publications and other knowledge products (e-learning courses); offering assistance to the countries both in emergency and after-outbreak situations, as well as long-term prevention strategies; and helping to establish and maintain regional networks dedicated to invasive species. Invasive species have no borders, therefore a strong and more coordinated interaction by affected countries within the same region and among different regional forest invasive species networks is needed to provide timely and efficient response when new invasive species are introduced and/or detected in a country or region. The Regional Forest Invasive Species Networks aim to foster the exchange of information and the mobilization of resources, support forest health projects, raise regional awareness, and act as a link between and among experts, institutions, networks and other stakeholders concerned with forest invasive species. The side event to COFO (20-07-2018) on global approach for managing forest invasive species is meant to: enhance Forest Invasive Species Networks regional collaboration; initiate the establishment of a harmonized global approach for management of forest invasive species. | |
