Engage

There are a number of ways that you can get involved and engage with weeds action. This section contains advice about individual biosecurity and hygiene practices to minimise the spread of weeds, an overview of WeedScan (a free community weed identification and management tool) and a link to the Community Invasives Action portal which contains a wealth of training information for community awareness and engagement strategies.

WeedScan – help to find high priority weeds

WeedScan will be a free community weed identification, alert, recording and communication system that supports cooperative weeds action Australia-wide.

WeedScan is in development with NSW Department of Primary Industries and CSIRO, together with a number of state agencies and the Centre for Invasive Species Solutions. WeedScan will identify weeds using artificial intelligence.

Users will be able to create, view and share records and engage with others through groups to improve weed control. WeedScan will link users to weed biology and management information relevant to their location and allow them notify state and local government of new weed incursions.

WeedScan will be available in April 2023.

Community Invasives Action

Pest problems are also ‘people’ problems – enhance community involvement in your invasive species management programs.

The variety of training resources available on Community Invasives Action are tailored for those involved in planning, coordinating and implementing community-led action.
