Turkey funds FAO project for food safety in 5 countries
Food safety systems from five countries located in Europe and Central Asia will benefit from Turkish expertise on the matter and funding to reach a common ground from a regional perspective. The initiative is under the jurisdiction of the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization’s (FAO) and will be funded by Turkey, which is also one of the beneficiaries in the project.
The project looks to strengthen official food safety control and risk communication systems in Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, the Republic of Moldova, Tajikistan and Turkey. It will include regional capacity development events and country-level activities. Lately, these nations have taken steps to improve their food control structures to cover all stages of food production and processing from farm-to-table. However, systems of the countries are at different stages of development, so the project will focus on specific country needs and several common challenges from a regional perspective, according to FAO and Turkish officials.
