FoodSafeR - A joined-up approach to the identification, assessment and management of emerging food safety hazards and associated risks

在欧洲，包括细菌、寄生虫、细菌毒素和过敏原在内的食源性危害每年已导致2000多万人患病和数千人死亡。食源性化学风险，通常与毒素的发生有关，日益受到关注。我们的欧洲食品企业过去几十年建立的食品安全管理体系和欧洲食品安全治理需要进行调整，以使食品系统更稳健地应对动态出现的多种压力(气候影响也是如此)。FoodSafeR旨在设计、开发和测试创新的、主动的和全面的食品安全预警和管理系统的构建块，并着眼于核心新出现的风险的动态。FoodSafeR在一整套面向未来的案例研究、工具、方法、战略、模型、指导和培训材料中体现了危险特征和风险管理的综合方法。一个开放和可访问的数字中心，旨在形成一个可持续的信息系统的核心，将作为一个一站式工具，针对风险管理者和评估员、食品安全当局以及在欧洲食品体系中运作的相关行为者和利益相关者。为了实现这一雄心勃勃的目标，FoodSafeR联合了一个世界级的联盟，由来自14个欧洲国家的18个组织组成，整合了科学、工业、中小企业和政策制定者。FoodSafeR将有助于防止欧洲食品系统中因生物和化学危害而发生的食品安全事故以及相关的社会经济影响。通过使这一方法取得成功，FoodSafeR有助于‘可持续、健康和包容性的食品系统，为气候缓解和适应、环境可持续性和循环性、可持续的健康营养、安全的食品消费、减少食品贫困、赋予社区权力和蓬勃发展的食品企业运营提供共同利益。

In Europe, each year foodborne hazards, including bacteria, parasites, bacterial toxins and allergens, already cause more than 20 million cases of illness and thousands of deaths. Foodborne chemical risk, often associated with occurrence of toxins, are of growing concern. Food safety management systems established over the past decades in our European food businesses, and European food safety governance need to be adapted to make the food system more robust towards multiple stressor coming dynamically up (so as climatic impacts). FoodSafeR aims to design, develop and test the building blocks of an innovative pro-active and holistic food safety warning and management system with a look on the dynamics of emerging risks at its heart. FoodSafeR embodies integrated approaches to hazard characterisation and risk management in a comprehensive suite of future oriented case studies, tools, methods, strategies, models, guidance and training materials. An open and accessible digital hub designed to form a core of a sustaining information system will be set up as a ‘One-Stop-Shop’ vehicle targeted at risk managers and assessors, food safety authorities and the relevant actors and stakeholders operating in the European food system. To reach the ambitious goal, FoodSafeR has united a world-class consortium of 18 organisations from across 14 European countries integrating science, industry, SMEs and policymakers. FoodSafeR will contribute to prevent food safety incidences occurring from biological and chemical hazards in the European food system as well as relevant socio-economic impacts. By bringing this approach to a success, FoodSafeR contributes to ‘sustainable, healthy and inclusive food systems delivering co-benefits for climate mitigation and adaptation, environmental sustainability and circularity, sustainable healthy nutrition, safe food consumption, food poverty reduction, the empowerment of communities, and flourishing food business operations.
