Good Practices on Humane Management of Vertebrate IAS

 

 

Welcome!
 

This questionnaire forms part of the project “Identification, Assessment, Sharing and Dissemination of Best Practices for Humane Management of Invasive Alien Species” (please see details about the project here).
 

We are asking for your help in identifying good practices in the humane management of vertebrate invasive alien species (IAS) that have been used across Europe.
 

Your contribution will inform a set of eight regional workshops across the EU, where measures available to eradicate, control and contain populations of the 22 vertebrate IAS of Union concern will be discussed. Participants of each workshop will select the 5 best good practice case studies per region, which will be combined to produce a list of 40 good practices from across all regions. From this list, ideally 22 case studies will be selected, each one representing one of the invasive alien vertebrate species of Union concern. These final 22 good practice case studies will then be presented at the final conference of the project in 2022 and may also be included within dissemination and communication materials for the individual regions, providing an opportunity for high exposure of the selected good practices.

For your good practice case study to be considered, please submit it according to the following schedule:
 

  • 7 March 2021 for case studies covering Bulgaria, Romania, Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Sweden
  • 21 March 2021 for case studies covering UK, Ireland, Netherlands, Belgium, France
  • 11 April 2021 for case studies covering Italy, Malta, Portugal, Spain, Croatia, Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Germany, Denmark, Luxembourg
  • 16 May 2021 for case studies covering Cyprus, Greece, Austria, Slovenia, Slovakia

Late submissions will be accepted, but might not be fully considered in the process.
 

The questionnaire asks you to provide comprehensive information about your case study, including geographic information, and an evaluation of its impact on animal welfare, effectiveness and innovativeness. You do not have to answer all questions, but please provide as much information as possible. There are 26 questions in this survey and we estimate that it will take you around 30 minutes to fill it in.
 

You can pause the survey and come back to it later (you will have to activate cookies for this function). You can also download the full set of questions here: Questionnaire_Vertebrate_IAS_2021.docx
