Improved tools and methodologies for identifying hazards, assessing risk, predicting impacts and ascertaining where in the system mitigation measures are best targeted for unintentional introductions.
Theme Scope:
- Systems approaches for risk assessment: assess risk at any point along the pathway to determine optimal mitigations and equivalence of treatments
- Risk grouping: group organisms for more efficient risk analysis
- Future risks: identify emerging risks to prioritise activities
- Impact prediction: predict potential impacts of unwanted organisms to inform biosecurity interventions
