WHO Draft Global Strategy for Food Safety Public Consultation Report Summary

Background

The draft strategy addresses current challenges by integrating new technologies and innovative approaches, requesting Member States (MS) to update the 2003 strategy. It highlights the need for improvements in food safety infrastructure, coordination, and a One Health approach.

Key Findings from Public Consultation

• Focus Area: Strategy should prioritize food safety over broader topics, addressing issues not covered sufficiently (e.g., chemical risks, allergens).
• Trade Focus: Concerns regarding strong WTO/SPS Agreement reference and potential redundancy with Codex/WTO work.
• One Health: Accurate terminology needed (e.g., correct identification of MERS/Ebola as non-foodborne); integration into vision strongly suggested.
• Food Systems: Need for deeper discussion on food system transformation impacts (LMICs, nutrition).
• Partnership Views: Clarify collaboration roles, acknowledge private sector responsibilities, include SME support; emphasize bidirectional communication.
• AMR/Resistance: Content requiring review, especially assumptions about AMU/AMR connections.
• New Technologies: Presenting both opportunities/challenges balanced, with consideration for resource-constrained settings (e.g., WGS feasibility).
• WHO Role & Implementation: Strengthened WHO positioning required beyond support roles; implementation should address stepwise approaches for low-resource contexts.
• Long-Term Health: Elaborate links to chronic disease, child development, and other long-term effects, supporting global health targets.
• Indicators/Targets: Concerns over ambition, lack of coverage, absence of tiered approaches, and post-COVID considerations.
• Writing Style: Emphasize conciseness and clarity.
