FAO is involved in providing technical assistance to enhance effective participation of member countries in Codex and in the implementation of its recommendations, guidelines, and standards. The capacity building on Codex at national, sub-regional and regional levels includes seminars, training of trainers' courses, workshops, preparation of tools, as well as field projects and experts' missions. These activities aim at highlighting specific issues, establishing or strengthening National Codex Committees or Codex Contact Points, raising awareness, and also facilitating the constructive exchange of information on Codex.
