Food security and food safety
Food Security exists when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an active (productive) and healthy life (World Food Summit, 1996. In: FAO 2006. Policy Brief).
Food safety: microbial contaminants and chemical toxicants below tolerance levels (Kramer, 1990. Southern J. Agric. Economics, 33-40).
Factors that affect food safety
Presence of microorganisms (bacteria, yeast, fungi, viruses) (Christensen, 1973, Seed Sci. Technol. 1: 547-562)
Presence of physical materials
Toxin production (Miller et al., 1995, J. Stored Prod. Res. 31: 1-16; Shephard, 2008, Chem. Soc. Rev. 37: 2468-2477) among others by fungi

ZGB - The Role of Generative AI in Government transformation.pdfSaeed Al Dhaheri
This keynote was presented during the the 7th edition of the UAE Hackathon 2024. It highlights the role of AI and Generative AI in addressing government transformation to achieve zero government bureaucracy
This session provides a comprehensive overview of the latest updates to the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly known as the Uniform Guidance) outlined in the 2 CFR 200.
With a focus on the 2024 revisions issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), participants will gain insight into the key changes affecting federal grant recipients. The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.
- Develop strategies for effectively implementing the new guidelines within the grant management processes of their respective organizations, fostering efficiency and accountability in federal grant administration.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

Presentation by Hung Nguyen, Food Safety Workshop 24 May 2017
1. From measuring to managing:
The experience of food safety in Vietnam
Better Targeting Food Safety Investments in Low and Middle Income Countries
Brussels, 24 May 2017
Hung Nguyen-Viet
International Livestock Research Institute & Hanoi University of Public Health
2. Outline
• Food safety in Vietnam: context
• Evidences from burden of diseases: risk
assessment research
• Managing risks: research to policy
translation and learning from other
countries
3. Food safety in Vietnam
• Food safety among the most pressing
issues, more important than education
or health care
• Vietnam has a modern food safety
legislation system but the use of risk
based approach is limited
• Risk perception towards chemical
hazards is important, issue of risk
communication
• Food exports relatively well managed
but deficits in domestic markets
• Vietnam government is actively
responding to high food safety
concerns
4. Importance of pork for food security in Vietnam
Pork is an important component of the Vietnamese diet
• More than 70% of consumed meat is pork,
27kg/capita/year
• 83% produced by very small or small farms
• 76% of pigs are processed in nearly 30,000 small
slaughterhouses.
• Preference for “warm” pork supplied in retail traditional
markets (80% of all pork marketed) affordable but
control challenges
• Consumption of risky pork products is common (raw
fermented/blood pudding)
Vegetables and fish as popular and potentially risky
foods
6. Microbial and Chemical Risk Assessment
• Salmonella risk pathways developed for producers, slaughterhouse and
consumers, quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) risk for consumer
• Chemical risk assessment: antibiotic residues, banned chemicals, heavy metals
1,275 samples (farms, slaughterhouse, market) collected during 1 year
PigRISK: Pork safety in Vietnam (2012-2017)

Dang Xuan Sinh et al, 2016, IJPH
8. PigRISK – QMRA for salmonellosis
The annual incidence of foodborne salmonellosis in the Asian region including
Vietnam was 1% (range 0.2-7%) (Havelaar 2015)
Age and gender groups
Estimated annual salmonellosis
incidence rate (Mean (90% CI)) (%)
Children (under 5 years old) 11.18 (0 – 45.05)
Adult female (6-60 years old) 16.41 (0.01 – 53.86)
Adult male (6-60 years old) 19.29 (0.04 – 59.06)
Elder (over 60 years old) 20.41 (0.09 – 60.76)
Overall 17.7 (0.89 – 45.96)
Dang Xuan Sinh et al, 2016, IJPH
9. Selected key results: Chemical risk
assessment
Tuyet Hanh et al, 2016, IJPH
Most of samples: negative or did not exceed current MRL
10. Economic impact of food borne diseases
• Costs per treatment episode and per hospitalization day for
foodborne diarrhea case were US$ 106.9 and US$ 33.6
respectively.
• 51.3%: Indirect cost (costs of times to patient, their relatives due
to the patient’s illness)
• 33.8%: Direct medical costs
• 14.9%: Direct non-medical costs (patient and their relatives)
Hoang Van Minh et al, 2015, JKMS
11. Can we solve the problem?
Learning from international experiences
12. Vietnam food safety: translational research
• CGIAR/ILRI niche - risk assessment and
policy / regulatory analysis for fresh
foods in domestic markets
• WB convenes overall support to
government
• ILRI support to Vietnamese Task Force
on Risk Assessment for Food Safety,
institutionalized by HUPH
• Long-term (>10 year) engagement –
Government, WB, VN research, CGIAR
partners, CGIAR
Download here
13. Policy translation in Food Safety:
Taskforce of Risk assessment for food safety
• Taskforce: convening food safety risk
assessment experts from universities,
research institutes, policy makers from the
ministries (health and agriculture)
• Activities:
• Policy analyses of food safety
• Case studies on risk assessment of
relevant food commodities prioritized by
policy makers
• Trainings and ddevelop risk assessment
guidelines
• Communication and dissemination
14.
15. International experience and future actions for
Vietnam?
• Upgrading markets and GAHP
show little evidence
• Supermarket is not safer than
wet market
• Demand side: increased
awareness of consumers
• Risk communication
• Needs of evidence on health
impacts of food safety
16. Take home messages
• Food safety: important issue in Vietnam and the
GoV is responding to this public concern
• Small holders and informal market is important for
food security and food safety
• Evidences from research show important burden of
food borne diseases (pork and others) but the risk
mitigating options exist
• Food safety policy influence: capacity building,
persistence, opportunistic and time sensitive
• International experiences and research evidences to
help Vietnam better target food safety interventions
