La República Dominicana conciente de la importancia que representan las especies exóticas invasoras en relación a la conservación de la Biodiversidad, ha venido realizando desde el año 2001 a través de la Secretaría de Estado de Medio Ambiente y Recursos naturales,  una serie de actividades con el objetivo de controlar y/o erradicar estas especies y a la vez capacitar a los actores para un mejor manejo de las mismas.
