[Invasive-species] Belgian expert registry on IAS and BFIS evaluation

[Sonia Vanderhoeven]

Dear colleagues,

The *IAS Expert Registry* is a new tool developed by the Belgian Forum on
Invasive Species. It allows to keep track of the experts and practitioner’s
community active on IAS in Belgium.

It also serves as a basis for the identification and selection of experts
within the framework of activities related to IAS policy in Belgium,
including the implementation of the EU Regulation on IAS.
Additionally, the registry aims to bring together management expertise on
specific species by allowing practitioners (nature reserve managers, people
from governmental bodies or private companies, social economy etc. working
in IAS eradication and control). This way, this register will serve to
bridge the gap between science, policy and management in the field.
Taxonomic specialists, field managers, specialists in cost/benefit
analysis, database managers, environmental lawyers ... The needed expertise
is multidisciplinary.

*Don't hesitate to register here :
