At the end of April, the International Food Safety Authorities Network (INFOSAN) hosted three webinars as part of preparations for World Food Safety Day, which will take place on 7 June this year.

The webinars served as an introduction to and overview of the 2021 campaign, with a presentation by Chile’s agency for food safety and quality (ACHIPIA) about the events they will hold this year. Members had an opportunity to talk about their experiences from last year’s celebrations and start brainstorming for this year.

The three 30-minute webinars took place on separate days and were held in three different languages: 27 April was in English, 28 April in Spanish and 29 April in French.

According to INFOSAN, over 100 Members attended the webinars, and in addition, there were over 130 views of the webinar recordings. There was a great deal of interest in the discussions.

Anyone planning an event for this year’s celebrations is encouraged to share a brief overview of their plans before their initiative is held and a news write-up with photos after. Contact: World-Food-Safety-Day [email protected]
