Vision of the draft strategy : To ensure all people, everywhere, consume safe and healthy food so as to reduce the burden of foodborne diseases. With 5 interlinked and mutually supportive strategic priorities, the draft strategy aims to build forward-looking, evidence-based, people-centred, and cost-effective food safety systems with coordinated governance and adequate infrastructures.
