Safe food, balanced nutrition and physical exercise are necessary to stay healthy. In Germany, the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL), the Federal Office of Consumer Protection and Food Safety (BVL) as well as the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) have joined forces to organise an annual World Food Safety Day charity run.

Not only will the 5K run help raise awareness of the importance of food safety for every individual, but also money for small-scale food safety projects in least developed countries.

Every step counts

Due to COVID-19 restrictions in 2020, the event will be postponed to 2021, but meanwhile: Every step counts and everybody is invited to join!
