Forest pest contingency plan guidelines for Europe and Central Asia
Pest contingency plans (PCP) are used by national or regional plant protection organizations to ensure a plan is in place for when a new pest is detected in a particular country or region, and thus to facilitate a rapid and effective response to manage the situation. This guide outlines and discusses the elements and steps needed to formulate and implement a contingency plan for key forest pests in Europe and Central Asia. This effort is complemented by FAO’s Forest Invasive Species Network for Europe and Central Asia (REUFIS), which aims to facilitate knowledge exchange, promote good practices, and build capacities related to forest invasive species, including the prevention and management of emerging pests.Suggestions are provided on the main steps, or elements, in a PCP for forests pests. The guidelines highlight the main information that should be included for a robust plan that can be activated in response to a new report of a pest or a pest outbreak, for example from official surveillance, reports from the public, or to an interception by an importing country. The report provides a step-by-step guide on developing an effective PCP tailored to specific needs. For some of the steps, examples are provided on the details that would be included for specific pests. These pests are the emerald ash borer Agrilus planipennis, a potential insect pest introduction into parts of Europe and Central Asia; the eight-toothed spruce bark beetle Ips typographus, native to many parts of Europe and Asia, but where outbreaks can cause substantial tree mortality; and pitch canker Fusarium circinatum, a potential fungal pathogen introduction into parts of Europe and Central Asia. Most of the content of the guide is relevant for the development of PCPs across different regions. However, the examples provided are specific to Europe and Central Asia

Evaluation highlights
El proyecto tuvo como objetivo conservar in situ y utilizar de manera sostenible la agrobiodiversidad de importancia mundial, mediante la preservación de los sistemas agrícolas tradicionales, la gestión integrada de los recursos, y el mantenimiento de los servicios ecosistémicos en 13 distritos de cinco regiones del sur del Perú. Se ejecutó bajo la modalidad de implementación con socios operacionales, con la FAO como agencia implementadora, el Ministerio del Ambiente como entidad ejecutora y el Fondo de Promoción de las Áreas Naturales Protegidas del Perú como el socio operacional
