Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Today, Friday June 7, 2019, is being celebrated as the First (1st) ever World Food Safety Day.
The theme for today’s celebration is; “Food Safety, Everyone’s Business”.

Everyone has a right to access sufficient amounts of safe and nutritious food to ensure good
health. Consumption of contaminated food can cause foodborne diseases which mainly affect
children, and negatively impacts socio-economic development. Food safety is critical for public
health and is essential for maintaining the gains in the tourism sector.
