The overall objective of GO-GLOBAL is to tackle food safety problems effectively at an early stage and on a worldwide scale.

By creating a comprehensive network of expertise on emerging risks in the food and feed chain, the GO-GLOBAL project aims to promote international cooperation and communication on food safety issues between authorities, researchers and industry.

Objectives

1. To create a sustainable global platform for sharing results, stimulating dissemination and setting the research agenda on emerging food safety risks.
   
2. To develop a global implementation and harmonisation strategy for evaluation of research and related activities.
   
3. To identify shortcomings in current food safety systems regarding the identification of emerging risks.
   
4. To develop a strategic research agenda, and initiate joint research activities.
   
5. To stimulate global exchange of information and dissemination of emerging food safety issues.
