ProjectImproving National Food Safety Systems and Regional Cooperation - GCP/RER/062/TUR 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Ensuring the safety of food is crucial for safeguarding public health, facilitating fair practices in food trade, and transforming food systems. Unsafe food undermines food and nutrition security, human development, the broader food economy, and international trade. Ensuring the safety of food is a complex process, where governments, the food industry and consumers have a role. The rapidly changing context of the food trade, production and consumption leads to the occurrence of different food hazards. In order to take preventive measures and react rapidly to emergencies, food control systems need to be in continuous development, science and evidence-based, and in line with globally accepted practices. Against this background, the project aimed to support five beneficiary countries (Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, the Republic of Moldova, Tajikistan, and Türkiye) that were facing challenges in improving certain aspects of their food control systems, to strengthen their official food safety controls and risk communication, in order to provide an enabling environment for public and private sectors to address priority food safety risks. -
