FAO to host a foresight meeting on new food sources and production systems

Considering the global attention on the area of new food sources and production systems, FAO will host a Food Safety Foresight Technical Meeting to discuss the food safety implications of some new foods. From 13 to 17 November, technical experts from across the globe will meet in Rome to discuss the food safety implications for plant-based food products that mimic animal-derived foods, and products derived from precision fermentation and 3D food printing.

The foresight component of the meeting will see the participants engage in forward-thinking exercises that will explore what the future landscape of new foods may look like.
