What we do
Coordinate, develop and track regional efforts to advance invasive species management in Pacific Island countries and territories.
The PIP — Pacific Invasives Partnership convenes member organisations, partners and Pacific specialists around the priorities of the Pacific Islands Framework for Nature Conservation. Membership is open to anyone with expertise in the area of the group — not only PIRT member organisation staff.

Strengthen biosecurity systems across the region
Coordinate eradication and control of high-priority invasives
Build capacity for invasive species detection and rapid response
