INFOSAN hosts webinars in the run up to World Food Safety Day (7 June)
At the end of April, the International Food Safety Authorities Network (INFOSAN) hosted three webinars as part of preparations for World Food Safety Day, which will take place on 7 June this year.
The webinars served as an introduction to and overview of the 2021 campaign, with a presentation by Chile’s agency for food safety and quality (ACHIPIA) about the events they will hold this year. Members had an opportunity to talk about their experiences from last year’s celebrations and start brainstorming for this year.
The three 30-minute webinars took place on separate days and were held in three different languages: 27 April was in English, 28 April in Spanish and 29 April in French.
According to INFOSAN, over 100 Members attended the webinars, and in addition, there were over 130 views of the webinar recordings. There was a great deal of interest in the discussions.
Anyone planning an event for this year’s celebrations is encouraged to share a brief overview of their plans before their initiative is held and a news write-up with photos after. Contact: World-Food-Safety-Day [email protected]
At the heart of the Codex mandate are the core values of collaboration, inclusiveness, consensus building and transparency. Governmental and non-governmental, public and private organizations alike play a vital role in ensuring Codex texts are of the highest quality and based on sound science.
Codex would have little authority in the field of international standard setting if it did not welcome and acknowledge the valuable contributions made by observers. Expert technical bodies, industry and consumer associations
contribute to the standard-setting process in a spirit of openness, collaboration and transparency.
Intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) can apply for observer status in Codex in order to attend and put forward their views at every stage of the standard-setting process.

around the world since ancient times.
We might not always know where it comes from,
but we expect it to be available, safe and of good quality.
