European Food Safety Authority 15th Scientific Colloquium - Emerging Risks

The objective of this Colloquium is to bring together international experts from different sectors related to food safety for an open scientific debate on key issues related to the identification of emerging risks, as defined by EFSA in 2007.

The main objective is to provide inputs for the development of EFSA's methodological framework for emerging risks identification.

Discussions will focus on four main topics, namely on available methods to identify emerging risks, strategic sources of information and strategies for data collection, identification of drivers of change as underling causes of emerging risks, and on opportunities for the establishment of an international network to communicate on emerging risks.
