The International Forestry Quarantine Research Group was established to provide a mechanism where critical forestry quarantine issues can be addressed through discussion and collaborative research. It serves to bring together scientists and phytosanitary officials to foster multi-disciplinary approaches to forest quarantine-related problems of global significance.

The Group serves several main functions:

• Advisory body to the IPPC providing scientific analysis and review of global phytosanitary issues and new information
• Forum for the discussion and clarification of key issues related to the phytosanitary implications of global trade.
• Identify and undertake collaborative scientific research aimed at high priority forestry quarantine questions.
