How FDA Is Integrating the Blueprint for Smarter Food Safety

ON DEMAND UNTIL JANUARY 27, 2022

Duration:60 minutes

The “New Era of Smarter Food Safety” blueprint by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) depends on domestic mutual reliance—the integration of local, state, and federal regulators working toward a common goal. But what does “domestic mutual alliance” look like in practice? In this webinar, you will learn how to identify opportunities to bring mutual reliance to life across the country and hear about current examples of successful rollouts.  

During this webinar, you will:
  • Learn about the role of domestic mutual reliance in FDA's blueprint for an integrated food safety system 
  • Examine how simple or complex mutual reliance partnerships can be developed and their benefits
  • Learn from professionals who have developed and experienced mutual reliance success
