Food Safety
Food safety, nutrition, and food security are closely linked. Unsafe food creates a cycle of disease and malnutrition, particularly affecting infants, young children, elderly, and the sick. In addition to contributing to food and nutrition security, a safe food supply also supports national economies, trade, and tourism, stimulating sustainable development.
