Plant Protection and Plant Health in Europe: Introduction and Spread of Invasive Species

Invasive species are considered to be the second largest reason for biodiversity loss wordwide. In recent years, national and internation al environmental polica and legislation have begun to reflect this fact.

Generally, what role does trade play in heightening the risk of introductions resulting from the exchange of goods? Should attention be paid to alien species in the quality-control procedures of goods, perhaps even at the point of production?
Official phytosanitary regulations, inspection and alert systems should protect people, production and nature from negative impacts of alien species. In the EU, for example, the activities of authorities are being harmonized. However, are the recently introduced quarantine structures already effective and are they working optimally? What migtht be required for the future?
The Symposium will bring specialists from research, consultancy, trade and administration together. Their discussions will widen our views across the selected foci of the large spectrum of alien, invasive species.
