Seminar for the Candidate Countries and the Potential Candidate Countries on Chemical Contaminants and Emerging Risks

This seminar was organized within the EFSA Pre-Accession Programme 2009/2010 for the Candidate and the Potential Candidate countries financed by the European Commission under the IPA Component.

The overall objective of the Programme is to promote the understanding of EFSA’s work, share expertise and create information exchange mechanisms in order to ensure that the national authorities of the beneficiary countries can participate effectively in the activities of EFSA both prior to accession and following accession to the EU. The participation in this Programme may contribute to the beneficiaries in familiarising themselves with the EU policies and working methods particularly focusing on the integrated approach to food safety “from field to plate”.
