Regional Coordination

Non-native species do not respect jurisdictional boundaries. Effective communication and collaboration with neighboring jurisdictions is of paramount importance in the prevention, eradication, and control of invasive species. This applies at all scales from the local to the international level. Governments and their partners need to work together to reduce the risks of biological invasion by managing the means by which organisms are intentionally and unintentionally moved among ecosystems, cooperate in on-the-ground management efforts across shared ecosystems, and address the various factors that make ecosystems particularly vulnerable to the adverse impacts of invasive species.
