Description
The project generally aims to introduce the concept of Food Safety Risk-Benefit Analysis in the APEC region and explore its possibility in complementing the traditional Food Safety Risk Analysis tools. Specifically, the Seminar aims to: (a) identify available scientific approaches and methods needed for conducting risk-benefit analysis of foods; (b) to explore opportunities and limitations to quantitatively/qualitatively compare risks and benefits; and (c) to define further research or capacity needs of each member economy in the region.
