Description
This workshop report reflects the discussions and outputs of the first joint LIFE MICA - LIFE RIPARIAS workshop, organized virtually on March 25, 2022. This workshop represented the kick-off of a longer term process towards the development of a data exchange format for reporting on the management of Invasive Alien Species. The aim of the workshop was to discuss the reporting on management interventions against invasive alien species (IAS), building on the experiences of project managers. Participants to the workshop were scientists, practitioners, authorities and other parties involved in IAS management. Break-out groups discussed requirements for reporting on IAs mangement, relevant terms and available controlled vocabularies for them. Presentations at the workshop are available upon request with their respective authors.
