National Invasive Species Awareness Week is an international event to raise awareness about invasive species, the threat that they pose, and what can be done to prevent their spread.
NISAW will drive invasive species awareness in two parts during 2021:
NISAW Advocacy and Education
February 22-28, 2021
Representatives from local, state, federal, and regional organizations discuss legislation, policies, and improvements that can be made to prevent and manage invasive species.
NISAW Local Events and Awareness
May 15-22, 2021
Partners host local events to remove invasives and educate elected officials, decision makers, and the public on how they can help to stop the spread of invasive species and protect communities.
Be a part of the conversation!

You can help National Invasive Species Awareness Week reach new people in new ways
NISAW sponsors are critical partners that ensure the capacity of NAISMA to coordinate outreach, advocacy activities, and raise the awareness of invasive species concerns to the public and elected officials.
NISAW webinars provide free continuing education on topics such as advocacy training, legislative priorities, new techniques, and what’s on the horizon for invasive species management, research, and policy across all taxa.
NISAW is coordinated by the North American Invasive Species Management Association in partnership with many federal agencies, state agencies, and local organizations. We estimate a reach of more than 10,000 individuals each year.
