Introduction to SELAMAT &
Global trends in food safety
Hans Marvin (RIKILT) and Teresa Crespo (iBET)
Son studying in China
Founders: Dr. H.J.P. Marvin (RIKILT); Overall coordinator Prof Dr. Y. Peng (IPP-CAAS) Prof Dr. J. Gilbert (CSL) Prof. Dr. M. Carrondo (iBET) Period: Aug 2004-July 2008 Budget: 597,000 € EU contribution
SELAMAT started as an EU project in 2004
The overall aim: To create a permanent network for international cooperation
on food safety issues between Europe and ASEM. This network aimed at: Promoting European and Asian collaboration on food safety
issues
Contributing to opening up the European Research Area
Mobilising the European and Asian Research Communities to support Community and Asian foreign and development policies
Developing of a common research agenda and initiate joint initiatives
SELAMAT objectives
Set up the network
Organise one workshop per year
Organise one course on food safety per year
Set up a web based transfer point for food safety standards/ regulation
Develop a common research agenda
Initiate joint research
SELAMAT activities
SELAMAT organised annually 1 -2
workshops on food safety and organised training courses
SELAMAT developed a highly visible Food Safety Legislation Portal
Pesticides
Contaminants
Veterinary Drugs
Food Additives
SELAMAT: Highlights
EU-ASEM Food Safety Platform with the following characteristics: Direct access to top experts on many expertise fields in EU and
Asia
Influence in research agenda setting
Easy access to outcomes of EU framework programs and ASEM counterpart
Means to extend existing network
Discuss “sensitive information” informally
SELAMAT: Food Safety sustainable network
SELAMAT became sustainable in 2008
SELAMAT keeps running the Food Safety Legislation Portal
SELAMAT initiated 2 new international projects on Food Safety
SELAMAT: Food Safety sustainable network
The format developed within SELAMAT for workshops and training courses has been highly successful
High exposure has been achieved
SELAMAT has become a sustainable network
SELAMAT products are highly appreciated
SELAMAT network grows into global dimensions

Emerging food safety risks: a global
assessment
Collation of expert opinion of global
stakeholders regarding emerging
risks was performed in project GO-

Emerging food risks
• Accidently
• Naturally
• Fraud or acts of malevolance
Methodology used: Delphi technique
A procedure to:
“obtain the most reliable consensus of opinion of a group of experts … by a series of intensive questionnaires interspersed with controlled opinion feedback”
Some characteristics of Delphi method: • Internet based with several rounds
• Number of rounds may vary
• Anonymous
• Shows issues of consensus

Overview of the GO-GLOBAL Delphi study
Round 1 49 participants Identification of relevant issues
and methods.
Round 2 272 participants (60 countries,
all continents)
Seek for consensus and
disagreement within the
identified issues and methods.
Round 3 98 participants (39 countries, all
continents)
Overview of results, conclusions
and, recommendations.

Conclusions from the Colla4Safety global
Delphi survey on food safety (2014-2015)
Demographic change, economic driving forces, resource shortages and environmental driving forces were identified as the primary drivers of both existing and emerging food safety risks
Individual drivers do not increase or decrease specific food safety risks. Rather each driver has impacts on multiple risks
From: Kendall et al. 2015
Geographical differences in the impacts of specific drivers on food safety risks were recognised. The drivers of food safety were assessed to have the greatest impacts in Africa compared to other continents
A systems approach to identifying, managing and mitigating food safety risks may represent a more useful policy tool
