Session 7: Harmonization of Food Regulations

 

Be sure to attend this timely keynote address by GHI President Huub Lelieveld, who in collaboration with GHI Food Chemical Safety Working Group chair Jaap Hanekamp, will present the latest information on how differences in regulations, especially those that are not science-based, hamper global food trade and result in needless destruction of safe food. Please check the onsite IUFoST program listings for session room and location.

The Global Harmonization Initiative holds general information and working group meetings in conjunction with international scientific conferences and events. We welcome participation by all of those in the scientific community who are interested in working together to achieve consensus on the science of food regulations and legislation to ensure the global availability of safe and wholesome food products for all consumers.
