EPPO communication kits: new templates for pest-specific posters and leaflets
As a result of the work of the EPPO Panel on Plant Protection Information, new EPPO communication material has been published on the EPPO website. Templates for pest-specific posters and leaflets have been prepared. The objective of this work was to provide NPPOs with templates that could be easily adapted to different types of pest-specific information campaigns (e.g. early warning, pest reporting, containment and eradication programmes). For posters, several possible titles and types of contents have been proposed using three examples: Agrilus planipennis, Popillia japonica and huanglongbing. The example of Popillia japonica has been used to prepare a template leaflet, largely based on a leaflet prepared by Italy. NPPOs are expected to personalize and translate these documents to adapt them to their own needs and branding.
All templates can be downloaded from the EPPO website, and the EPPO Secretariat would very much appreciate to receive feed-back from NPPOs on their use in national information campaigns.
