Pests and diseases early warning services require a standardized framework of data collection and sharing to minimize errors and make sure that they are timely and of early warning nature. An online technical consultation for plant pests and diseases data collection and sharing was held on 5, 12 and 13 November 2020, organized by FAO, the Sunchon National University, and the University of Southern Queensland. The consultation was convened to discuss the best way to address what we perceived to be a gap in how pests and diseases data are collected, organized, and shared to support the establishment of pests and diseases early warning services. During the workshop, we found that it proved useful for framing the discussion as participants quickly grasped the idea and provided valuable feedback on current practices, best practices and future recommendations. This presentation will share not only the findings from the workshop but also our experiences in establishing early warning services for pests and diseases in several countries.
