Observer Organizations
The IFBA provides an opportunity for like-minded international agencies, academia, governments, NGOs and professional associations to join the IFBA as an Observer organization. Observer organizations possess an interest on issues of biosafety, biosecurity and biorisk management but are not formally organized as a national or regional biosafety association.
