Hungarian food safety office campaigns for food safety as “our common cause”
Hungary’s ‘Nébih’ – or National Food Chain Safety Office – will be embracing World Food Safety Day this year, in a series of events that will make use of the World Food Safety Day slogan, “food safety is everyone’s business” and the theme, “safe food now for a healthy tomorrow.”
Activities will involve a photo collage to be produced as part of an internal Nébih campaign, to which employees will be asked to contribute images of safe food practices. The resulting collage will be a roll-up poster showing diverse food safety practices that will be unveiled by the Nébih president and then taken on a road trip to all 42 Nébih branches. It will then be made available on the organization’s intranet site.
The public campaign will involve social media messaging, a video on food safety and the norovirus a short article in the Nébih free magazine and a special edition cookbook. The organizers are keen to highlight the collective responsibility involved in keeping food safe and that “Good personal hygiene prevents the spread of foodborne diseases.”

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.

We might not always know where it comes from,
but we expect it to be available, safe and of good quality.
