Connecting the global plant health community
For more than five decades, the International Congress of Plant Pathology has brought the global plant health community together to exchange knowledge, build collaborations and respond to the challenges facing plants, food systems and the environment.
Held approximately every five years, each ICPP reflects the priorities of its time while advancing a shared international commitment to plant health and food security.
