dc.descriptionEnsuring consumer protection and food safety and quality is essential to safeguarding the health and well-being of Palestinian people; as well as to accessing domestic, regional and international markets. However, constant threats from animal diseases and plant pests and diseases put the food safety of Palestinian consumers at risk. These problems are compounded by the limited capacity of local authorities in monitoring, inspecting and controlling the food value chain, and in regulating and providing Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) services in the framework of a sustainable national SPS system. In addition, small-scale herders, particularly in Gaza Strip, are adversely affected by a lack of resources and essential services, as well as having limited access to animal health services, which are indispensable for protecting livestock from disease outbreaks. The project aimed to enhance the design and implementation of better policies and regulatory frameworks for public sector institutions, and to improve the provision of public services related to plant protection, food safety and quality, as well as animal health.
