Why Our Network Matters

The Indonesian Invasive Species Action Network, commonly referred to as IISAN, is a collaborative initiative that aims to address the pressing issue of invasive species in Indonesia.

Public Awareness

Fostering collective action through education and scientific publication to empower communities in safeguarding the environment from biosecurity threats

Research Excellence

Conducting comprehensive studies on the functional traits of invasive plants and insect communities across diverse ecosystems, from tropical wetlands to karst landscapes

Ecosystem Protection

Developing strategic mitigation and management plans to minimize the impact of invasive species on Indonesia’s native flora and fauna and their habitats

National Collaboration

Government Agencies

We work closely with national and local government bodies to align our initiatives with national biosecurity policies. Our goal is to provide data-driven recommendations that strengthen regulatory frameworks and support the implementation of the National Strategic Action Plan for Invasive Alien Species (IAS) management.

Research Institutions

Innovation is at the core of our actions. By partnering with leading universities and research centers. We ensure that every intervention is backed by rigorous scientific evidence, from taxonomic identification to ecological impact modeling.

Local Communities

We believe that the most effective frontline defense is an informed public. We empower local communities through education and citizen science programs, enabling them to identify, report, and manage invasive species within their own landscapes to protect their natural heritage
