On the table with food safety
El November 20th 2020 The conference 'At the table with food safety' was held in virtual format, with speakers from universities, research centers and the food sector. The common thread of these sessions was to value access to safe and nutritious food, a fundamental right of all individuals recognized by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Health Organization ( WHO). In addition, one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the WHO Agenda 2030 is the 'Zero Hunger and Food Security', which has also been very present in this activity. The concept of Food Security refers to access to safe, secure and nutritious food for all consumers at all times, for which it is necessary to resort to the use of different resources and strategies to ensure that all food is safe for consumption.
The conference 'At the table with food safety' is part of the IV CyTA Conference with Food Safety at the URJC, organized annually by the Research Group in Analytical Chemistry Applied to the Environment, Food and Drugs (GQAA-MAF) and held on November 20 on the occasion of the celebration of the National Food Safety Day (DNSA).
