An Introduction To Food Risk Communication (English only)
Giugno 23, 2006
The need for effective risk communication is becoming increasingly recognised by many Governments and the food industry. Although risk communication of food safety issues is still in its infancy, much can be learned from past experience. The European Food Information Council (EUFIC) aims to enhance communication between Government, the food industry and consumers. In this context EUFIC has started analysing how risk was communicated during the recent acrylamide food scare and has identified a number of lessons for the future. This paper provides an introduction to the subject, using the acrylamide alarm as a case study. Although the principles are based on this particular case study, many of them can be considered as general principles for risk communication.
