Tóm tắt : | iii, 23 p. This report emphasizes the crucial role of countries in identifying and responding to global public health risks associated with food safety incidents, as mandated by the International Health Regulations (IHR). Central Asian countries (CAC) have experienced significant economic shifts in the last two decades, leading to reduced dependence on domestic agriculture and increased reliance on food imports. This shift towards globalization highlights the necessity for robust food safety measures, including active engagement in networks like the International Food Safety Authorities Network (INFOSAN). In response to this, WHO in cooperation with FAO and the INFOSAN Secretariat organized a sub-regional workshop for central Asian countries, focusing on enhancing rapid exchange of food safety information through INFOSAN using the One Health approach. The workshop convened national IHR focal points, INFOSAN emergency contact points, INFOSAN focal points, and other representatives from food safety authorities involved in handling food safety emergencies in the central Asian countries. Technical experts from WHO, FAO and the INFOSAN Secretariat provided comprehensive two-day training sessions, followed by reports from central Asian countries detailing their approaches to exchanging food safety information. This was complemented by plenary and group discussions aimed at reviewing barriers, generating recommendations and practical strategies to strengthen participation in INFOSAN. |
