IOBC-WPRS is proud to launch the new website
After 20 years, our website and web shop needed a technical upgrade and a redesign. A dedicated project team has been working for more than a year together with external web and communications experts to build a new website. It provides a fresh and mobile friendly overview about our non-profit organisation, improves navigation, and shows better the benefits of being an IOBC-WPRS member.
The design of the new website is more modern and intuitive. It features a clear structure with a simple drop-down menu on top of the page that is easy to use and easy to navigate.
Check it out at www.iobc-wprs.org and enjoy an entirely new and streamlined user experience!
Important changes to your membership
Create a new password!
We have already transferred all member data to the new database. However, passwords cannot be transferred because of data security reasons. They are encrypted and not visible to anyone, including our back office.
Therefore, please help us to finish the transfer process! Log in to the new website with your current Username (= your e-mail address) and create a new password.
Membership periods change to Calendar Year
Starting with 2023, IOBC-WPRS memberships will be valid for calendar year periods. This makes membership administration easier and aligns better with subscriptions to BioControl, which are tied to the calendar years.
During the transition phase in 2023, members with memberships expiring before end of June 2023 will be asked to renew for 2023, while members with younger memberships will only be asked to renew for 2024. Please contact the treasurer (treasurer@iobc-wprs.org) if you have any questions related to membership renewal or BioControl subscriptions.
