The second IUFRO WG 7.03.13 Meeting: Biological control of forest insect pests and pathogens will take place from 6 to 8 November 2019 in Pretoria, South Africa (with post-meeting field trip planned for 8-11 November).

IUFRO is an international network of forest scientists working in a very broad range of research areas, including forest health and the management of invasive species. The IUFRO working group 7.03.13 focuses on research related to the biological control of forest insect pests and pathogens.

The working group meetings are generally not too large (less than 100 people) which allows easier engagement with fellow researchers.
