The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has published the report of the 2023 Food Safety Foresight Technical Meeting, along with a series of video interviews and an infographic. The report explores three focus areas addressed at the meeting – plant-based food products, precision fermentation and 3D food printing.
FAO aims to support its Members in preparing for the arrival of new foods on the market by providing sufficient information to protect consumer health and implement fair trade practices. Through foresight approaches, FAO has been monitoring this emerging sector and evaluating the opportunities and challenges it brings for agrifood systems, especially in the context of food safety.
In a series of videos recorded during the meeting, experts discuss the safety of new food sources and production systems.
