SELAMAT is bringing together stakeholders (academia, government, regulators, industry) from Europe and Asia in a network to share knowledge, expertise, methodology, best practices and policy developments related to food production.
The emphasis of the network is on food safety and food quality and associated issues such as food security, climate change and new technology developments.
It should lead to scientific partnerships involving Asian food industries in a concerted effort towards the assured, safer and more sustainable production systems that Europe is aiming to achieve.
