SSAFE’S MISSION
The mission of SSAFE is to identify, support and facilitate activities that address the association of animal health, wildlife, agriculture, aquaculture, fisheries and  beverages with food safety, human health, plant health and environmental sustainability on a global basis.

Our Strategy is to:

• Create and support collaborative platforms that bring stakeholders together to develop science-based strategies to facilitate the production and distribution of safe food
• To support and promote international science-based Harmonization of Standards such as those referenced in the WTO/SPS agreement i.e. CODEX, OIE and IPPC, as well as ISO 22000, that protect both human and animal health
• To seek to improve the global food system through Capacity Building (stimulating education and improving local infrastructures) and promoting Social Responsibility through economic growth that conserves the environment and natural resources as well as provides decent employment opportunities
• To provide a platform whereby there can be alignment of regulators and industry regarding trade issues and food safety on a global basis
