| International Plant Health Conference 21 – 23 September 2022 | 09:00-18:00 Queen Elizabeth II Centre | London UK Dear plant health colleagues and friends, Plant health is a key factor in any strategy to achieve food security, protect the environment and biodiversity, and facilitate safe trade. In the past months, the Secretariat of the International Plant Protection Convention has been working closely with the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA) of the United Kingdom (UK) and the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations, on organizing the first-ever International Plant Health Conference (IPHC), being held in London, the UK, from 21 – 23 September. The IPHC aims to address new and emerging plant health challenges, including climate change impacts, the rapid loss of biological diversity, the significant increase in international trade, and new pest pathways such as e-commerce. The IPHC is a unique opportunity to raise global awareness and promote the importance of protecting plant health. Take part in the crucial discussions on plant health by following the Live webcast on the IPHC webpage. Information on the IPHC and a collection of plant health resources (key messages, social media assets, publications, videos, stories, podcasts, and more) are available on the IPHC Trello board. Please don’t forget to tag IPPC (Facebook, Twitter) when posting on social media and remember to use the official event hashtag #PlantHealthConference. I would be pleased to hear your thoughts and ideas on the way forward to promote plant health globally. Sincerely, Osama El-Lissy Secretary International Plant Protection Convention |
