| dc.description | Enhancing food control has never been more important for the small island nation of Kiribati In the face of COVID 19 and its associated health and economic impacts, this project was designed to facilitate the efficiency of agrifood value chains Although the country has been a member of Codex Alimentarius ( since 1990 some gaps and challenges were identified after earlier projects related to food safety were concluded The main issues were related to the lack of tracing procedures on food disease outbreaks or contamination, inadequate consumer knowledge on food security, lack of a national database of food premises, insufficient numbers of food inspection officers, training and experience in food safety issues, lack of access to adequate resources, facilities, equipment, transportation, communication systems and supplies for delivery of food inspection services For this reason, it was recommended to build a central integrated laboratory as more efficient and cost effective way to provide analytical capacity for regulatory enforcement However, ten years were estimated for its completion, requiring significant resource mobilization and investment from public and private sectors. | |
