The toolkit is intended to be global in its applicability, although there is a small island focus, recognizing that the impact of invasive alien species on biodiversity is greater in small island systems. The authors state that the toolkit will need to be locally adapted for different countries or regions.The toolkit is laid out as follows: an opening introduction chapterbuilding strategy and policy, i.e. how to develop national plans and support for themmethods for prevention of invasive species and the risk-analysis process methods for early detection of new invasive speciesa broad review of different management approachesthoughts on how to use the toolkit The kit uses case studies throughout and differentiates between various biomes and species.
