Istanbul hosts 9th International Food Safety Congress
The 9th International Food Safety Congress, organized by the Food Safety Association, took place in Istanbul under the theme “Access to Safe Food: Everyone’s Right, Everyone’s Responsibility.” The event brought together scientists, public authorities, food producers, technology developers, and consumer representatives from 17 countries.
Key topics discussed included the impact of artificial intelligence and digitalization on food safety, risks posed by climate change, food fraud, new food technologies, and sustainable food systems. The congress also addressed the spread of unscientific claims regarding food and health, focusing on evidence-based risk assessment methods to combat misinformation.
The event opened with a lecture by Professor Charles Spence from Oxford University regarding senses and the eating experience. Dr. Samim Saner, President of the congress, noted that food safety now intersects with diverse fields including climate change, AI, and consumer trust, moving beyond the sole responsibility of producers and laboratories.
