Uncontrolled spread of genetically engineered organisms

In 2013, Testbiotech published the first global atlas showing the uncontrolled spread of genetically engineered plants

In 2014, Testbiotech organised a conference in Berlin on this topic.
Subsequently, an international appeal was launched, which should help to stop the uncontrolled spread of genetically engineered organisms. The appeal found broad international support.

In 2015 Testbiotech published a second report about the topic, including genetically engineered insects and presented it in a workshop of experts within the framework of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in Montreal.

Testbiotech is demanding a ban on the release of genetically engineered organisms whose spread cannot be contained geographically and temporally.
