GO-GLOBAL
a global platform on emerging risks in the food and feed chain

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.

For more information about the project, the objectives, workpackages and deliverables, see the pages about the project.
