Food Safety is everybody responsibility

Everyone has the right to safe, nutritious and sufficient food. Still today, almost one in 10 people in the world fall ill, and 420,000 die after eating contaminated food. When food is not safe, children cannot learn, adults cannot work. Human development cannot take place.

The first ever World Food Safety Day is being celebrated on June 7 to draw attention and inspire action to help prevent, detect and manage food borne risks, and improve food security, human health and sustainable development. This day calls for stronger and more concerted efforts to reduce food safety risks. Whether you produce, process, sell or prepare food, you have a role in keeping it safe. Everybody along the food chain is responsible for food safety.
