Governance and Food Safety course 2020

Food safety and international development

From 9-27 March 2020 AalbertsFoodWise and Centre for Development Innovation Wageningen UR will organize a 3 week course in The Netherlands on Food Safety for professionals from public and private organisations in emerging economies and developing countries. The course focuses on the mechanisms of international standard setting, the EU and national food safety legislation and policy, implementation of public and private standards, impact on developing economies, and change management.

The Governance and Food Safety in International Food Chains course will help you to:

• Understand the relationship between the essential elements of a national food safety system: standards and regulations, monitoring and surveillance, food safety management systems, inspection and certification, risk communication, and training and education.
• Practice a step-wise approach to improve your own control system: benchmark current practice, identify local challenges and opportunities and design a strategy to manage the change process.
• Develop skills (and confidence) to engage with others to bring about change in your own organization, major clients or other stakeholders.
