Expert Groups carry out the projects approved by the Executive Committee and that form part of the NAPPO Annual Work Program. EG members represent each member country National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO) and can include industry and academia experts, when appropriate. EG members are nominated by the AMC and endorsed by the EC.
The Chairperson is responsible for ensuring that EG work is conducted on a timely basis, scheduling conference calls with the assistance of the NAPPO Secretariat, and writing or editing conference call reports (Click here to learn more about the roles and responsibilities of the EG Chair and Co-Chairperson).
