The seminar aims at collating the results achieved through the years towards a wider dissemination and application by local industry and other relevant agencies.
It will bring together scientists and policy-makers to exchange information and ideas on how to harness the available scientific knowledge on African fermented foods in order to enhance quality and food safety, which is a pre-requisite for enhancing their competitiveness in both national and international markets.
The seminar will also provide an opportunity to link into other international research findings in the areas of food quality and food safety, especially, the EU-funded research project “PathogenCombat”, an Integrated Project within the EU 6th Framework Programme.
