ABSTRACT – IICA FSMA proposal The Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) proposes to use a combination of lead instructor training, strategic workshops, webinars, and network strengthening to reduce risks associated with importing food into the United States. In partnership with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Regional Office for Latin America and the Caribbean, the Produce Safety and the Preventive Controls Alliances and other strategic partners, a diverse group of stakeholders, including FDA regulatory counterparts, academia, and industry representatives, will receive training in preventive controls for human foods, produce safety, and other key FSMA rules. Country-specific case studies will augment and buttress official alliance curricula and allow trainees to apply learning in a relevant, practical manner. Beyond training, strategic workshops will provide an opportunity for regulators from target countries to address specific technical issues through official Alliance training materials. Webinars will augment training and strategic workshops by providing the food safety community with technical resources they need to maintain and continue their education. In addition to these three components, IICA proposes to strengthen communication and cohesion by leveraging investments made by the Preventative Controls and Produce Safety Alliances. Specifically, IICA plans to work with both Alliances to ensure that Latin American trainees have access to translated versions of relevant communications and materials. We see real value in using the networks developed during training programs to promote information sharing and cohesion within and between countries. In this way, we foresee a strengthening of the food safety community across the Americas. Through these interventions, IICA will develop a Cadre of Food Safety Experts in key exporting countries, with the goal of decreasing risks associated with non-compliant food products entering the United States. IICA will measure success by evaluating the outcomes and impact of all activities conducted under this project and will make programming adjustments as needed.

摘要-IICA FSMA提案 美洲农业合作研究所建议使用一种 首席讲师培训、战略研讨会、网络研讨会和网络的组合 加强以降低与向美国进口粮食有关的风险。在……里面 与美国食品和药物管理局(FDA)拉丁语地区办事处建立合作伙伴关系 美洲和加勒比，生产安全和预防性控制联盟和 其他战略合作伙伴、不同利益攸关方群体，包括FDA监管机构 同行、学术界和行业代表将接受预防培训 对人类食品、生产安全和FSMA其他关键规则的控制。针对特定国家的案例 学习将加强和支持官方联盟课程，并允许受训者申请 以切合实际的方式学习。除培训外，战略研讨会还将提供 目标国家的监管机构有机会解决具体的技术问题 通过官方联盟培训材料。网络研讨会将加强培训和战略 通过向食品安全界提供他们需要的技术资源来举办研讨会 保持和继续他们的教育。 除了这三个组成部分外，亚信提议加强沟通和 通过利用预防性控制和生产所做的投资实现凝聚力 安全联盟。具体来说，IICA计划与这两个联盟合作，以确保拉丁语 美国学员可以访问相关通信的翻译版本，并 材料。我们看到了使用在培训计划期间开发的网络的真正价值 促进国家内部和国家之间的信息共享和凝聚力。通过这种方式，我们 预计整个美洲的食品安全界将得到加强。 通过这些干预措施，美洲食品安全研究所将在关键领域培养一支食品安全专家队伍 出口国，目标是减少与不符合规定的食品有关的风险 进入美国的产品。IICA将通过评估结果来衡量成功 以及在该项目下开展的所有活动的影响，并将制定方案 根据需要进行调整。
