No results found.This year over 500 events were organized in at least 139 countries. Many of those were technical conferences and discussions organized by governments, the private sector and students to discuss how standards help to keep food safe. There were also walks, runs, gymnastics and dance, as well as songs, poster competitions, art exhibitions and lots more. Given the media and social media coverage of these events, World Food Safety Day is clearly sparking imaginations and making headway in its mission to raise awareness about tackling what is a largely preventable problem. World Food Safety Day aims to galvanize action to help prevent, detect and manage foodborne risks. This in turn will contribute to food security, human health, economic prosperity, agriculture, market access, tourism and sustainable development. Read this report for a summary of events and learn more by visiting the World Food Safety Day website or the FAO, WHO and Codex Alimentarius websites. -

Overview of festivity and creativity
2021With a theme of ‘Safe food now for a heathy tomorrow’, World Food Safety Day (7 June 2021) focused on the immediate and long-term benefits of producing and consuming safe food. It was a day to remember that food safety is part of food security and good health. It was a time to recognize the intrinsic connections between the health of people, plants, animals, the environment and economy. And it was a moment for heightened creativity. International organizations, governments, businesses, non-governmental organizations, academics and individuals from 90 different countries convened to showcase their achievements, discuss their priorities and plan how to overcome challenges in the food safety realm. The pandemic meant, for a second time, that many initiatives were held virtually, which inspired organizers to make imaginative use of social media, online events and more in reaching audiences. In this summary, we take a glimpse at the webinars, videos, press conferences, media coverage, contests, social media posts and campaigns that involved millions of people across the world in May and June 2021. Find out more about food safety on the FAO, WHO, Codex Alimentarius and INFOSAN websites. -
