Project strengthens food safety systems in five countries of Europe and Central Asia
Unsafe food is a major threat to human health and economies globally. A new project has been kicked off to strengthen official food safety control and risk communication systems in Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Republic of Moldova, Tajikistan, and Turkey.
Implemented under the FAO-Turkey Partnership Programme on Food and Agriculture, funded by Turkey, the project will carry out regional capacity development events, as well as country-level activities.
Effective food control systems cover all stages of food production and processing from farm-to-table, as food safety should be considered at every step of the value chain – from producers and vendors to consumers.
