Workshop “Management of invasive species in Portugal: where are we and where do we want to go?”

On 11th July 2017, the Workshop “Management of invasive species in Portugal: where are we and where do we want to go?” was held in Coimbra, organized by the Associations NATIVA – Nature, Invasive and Environmental Valorization and MONTIS – Association for the Conservation of Nature, in collaboration with the Escola Superior Agrária de Coimbra and the Functional Ecology Center from the University of Coimbra.

This Workshop was the first step towards the creation of the “Multi-institutional network for the management of invasive species” that hopes to foster cooperation and improve the way in which invasive species are managed in Portugal, namely by sharing and discussing knowledge and experiences.
