Please visit http://www.pestrisk.org/ for details. About the IPRRG: The IPRRG, first convened in 2007 as the Pest Risk Mapping Workgroup, is a dedicated group of research scientists and pest risk practitioners that aims to develop enhanced pest risk modelling and mapping methods through rigorous and innovative research focused on the key challenges faced by the discipline. We hold regular meetings to present, discuss, and test new developments. We communicate findings of the group and its members regarding these topics via our website (www.pestrisk.org/) and publications to a broad international audience that includes scientists, policymakers, and other end users. We also provide technical training in the methods utilized to generate these outputs, thereby promoting best practice in their application.
