Région du Comité FAO/OMS de coordination pour l'Europe (CCEURO) - Coordonnateur régional: Germany
En 1964, lors de sa deuxième session, la Commission du Codex Alimentarius a créé le Comité de coordination pour l’Europe afin de succéder au Conseil européen du Codex Alimentarius, et remplacer le Groupe consultatif pour l’Europe, créé lors de sa première session en 1963.
La première réunion du Comité de coordination pour l’Europe a eu lieu en juillet 1965 à Berne (Suisse) et a rassemblé 16 pays de la région.
Le coordinateur actuel, l’Allemagne, est basé au Ministère fédéral de l’Alimentation et de l’Agriculture (BMEL).
Les principales priorités de l’Allemagne en tant que coordinateur sont:
- de réduire les barrières à la participation active des membres de la région aux travaux du Codex;
- de sensibiliser au rôle du Codex et de la sécurité sanitaire des aliments de manière générale dans le cadre de la transition vers des systèmes alimentaires pérennes; et
- d’encourager l’usage des normes du Codex dans les domaines prioritaires comme la résistance aux antimicrobiens (RAM).
Pour répondre à ces priorités, le coordinateur utilisera les synergies issues des activités régionales et internationales du Secrétariat du Codex, de la FAO et de l’OMS ainsi que des observateurs du Codex.
