New Document: Measures for Reducing New Introductions and Eradication/Control of Non-Indigenous Species in the Mediterranean

The “Guidelines Document on the Identification and Introduction of Appropriate Measures for the Reduction of New Introductions and for Eradication/Control of Non-Indigenous Species (NIS) in Priority Sites in Line with Post 2020 SAPBIO” is now available.

This document outlines nine key measures for effective NIS management, including comprehensive biosecurity and early detection, standardized monitoring at sentinel sites, protecting ecosystems and native predators, and market valorisation of NIS products.

The approach proposed to implement the measures are climate-adaptive and context-aware, offering a path to reconcile conservation goals with the region’s dynamic ecological and socio-economic realities.
