BEASTIE THE BUG:

EPPO - 2020

Campaign held in 2020 and 2021 in the framework of the International Year of Plant Health (IYPH2020), based on a mascot symbolising an invasive pest. About 50 specimens of this mascot were distributed across the EPPO region and participants were invited to post a picture of themselves with Beastie on a specific website (https://beastiebug.eppo.int/) with a short personal message related to plant health before passing it to someone else.
