Schulten] FAO's role in integrated pest management (IPM) in Africa has many components. Broadly speaking, it is the promotion of IPM in member countries, done within the context of strengthening plant protection in general and under the guidance of the FAO/UNEP Panel of Experts on Integrated Pest Control. Activity areas undertaken by FAO which have links with IPM, include: Awareness, creation and promotion of IPM Organizes meetings, seminars, workshops, etc. to discuss and present results obtained in field projects; participates in meetings organized by other organizations; prepares publications on IPM in general, or on specific components of IPM, and on results obtained in field projects; and prepares teaching and training materials on improved plant protection and IPM. Infrastructure Sets up or strengthens plant protection services or plant research institutes to make them functional, giving due consideration to regulatory functions; gives training in improved plant protection at all levels within the framework of the field programme. Development Develops appropriate pest control measures in line with the IPM strategy. Implementation Conducts field projects to strengthen capabilities in plant protection at the national level; conducts IPM implementation projects and plant production/protection projects. Policy development Convenes regular meetings of statutory bodies (various panel meetings); convenes meetings or expert consultations on special topics; advises member countries on strategies to increase capabilities in plant protection. Co-ordination Convenes donor meetings; co-ordinates donor activities and inputs; conducts regional or global activities on specific topics such as quarantine, pesticide residues, etc. Copyright © ICIPE 1989 Integrated pest management nationallicence awareness of IPM nationallicence creation of IPM nationallicence promotion of IPM nationallicence infrastructure of IPM nationallicence development of IPM nationallicence implementation of IPM nationallicence policy development on IPM nationallicence coordination of IPM nationallicence Lutte intégrée des ravageurs nationallicence connaissance nationallicence création nationallicence promotion nationallicence infrastructure nationallicence développement nationallicence implementation nationallicence coordination nationallicence International Journal of Tropical Insect Science Cambridge University Press 10/6(1989-12), 795-807 1742-7584 10:6<795 1989 10 JTI https://doi.org/10.1017/S174275840001256X text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1017/S174275840001256X text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- Schulten G.
