Why be concerned with capacity building?
![Page 3: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Food Safety Incidents Can Be Costly
• Public Health Impact– Food borne illness a serious threat to millions– Impact particularly devastating to those in
developing countries
![Page 4: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Public Health Impact• Consumer Confidence• Impact on local food safety
– Development of “multi-class” system of food quality and safety
• Efforts to repair “brand” – Highest quality reserved for export– Poorer quality left for local population
![Page 5: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Public Health Impact
• Impact on local food safety – Development of “multi-class” system of food
quality and safety• Efforts to repair “brand” • Less safe foods for local population
![Page 6: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Public Health Impact
• Impact on local food safety – Development of “multi-class” system of food
quality and safety• Efforts to repair “brand”• Less safe foods for local population• Erosion of trust by local population
![Page 7: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Public Health Impact
• Impact on local food safety – Development of “multi-class” system of food
quality and safety• Efforts to repair “brand” often leads to:• Less safe foods for local population• Erosion of trust by local population• Limitations on food choices
![Page 8: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Public Health Impact
• Impact on local food safety – Development of “multi-class” system of food
quality and safety– Increased susceptibility to infectious diseases
![Page 9: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Public Health Impact
• Impact on local food safety• Impact on DISTANT food safety
![Page 10: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Public Health Impact
• Impact on local food safety• Impact on DISTANT food safety
– Reduced local public health = increased risk of contaminated exported products
![Page 11: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Public Health Impact
• Impact on local food safety• Impact on DISTANT food safety
– Reduced local public health = increased risk of contaminated exported products
– Reduced focus on food safety increases risk of economic adulteration
![Page 12: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Food Safety Incidents Can Be Costly
• Public Health Impact– Food borne illness a serious threat to millions– Impact particularly devastating to those in
developing countries• Economic Impact
– Losses due to productivity– Declines in trade– Increased health costs– Disproportionate impact on small businesses

APEC Food Safety Initiatives
• APEC Food Safety Cooperation Forum (FSCF) – Food safety regulators– Build food safety regulatory systems consistent with
internationally recognized food standards – Exchange technical information to identify and
address food safety capacity needs
![Page 28: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
APEC Food Safety Initiatives• APEC Food Safety Cooperation Forum (FSCF)
– Food safety regulators– Build food safety regulatory systems consistent with
internationally recognized food standards – Exchange technical information to identify and address food
safety capacity needs
• Partnership Training Institute Network (PTIN) – Public-private partnership of industry, academia, and
government – Resources and expertise to address food safety capacity
building priorities in the APEC region
![Page 29: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
PTIN Strategic Goals
To facilitate trade and improve public health by:
• Better assuring the safety of the food supply chain in the APEC region
• Building capacity in the use of international standards and best practices in food safety
![Page 30: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
What is Involved in Capacity Building?
![Page 31: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Develop Pilot Programs under the APEC FSCF
Food Safety Capacity Building Priorities:
• Food safety regulatory systems• Food inspection and certification systems• Technical skills and human resource capacity
(internationally accredited standards and procedures)
• Information-sharing and communication networks
![Page 32: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Develop Pilot Programs under the APEC FSCF and PTIN
Common specific areas of focus:– Supply Chain Management– Food Safety Incident Management– Laboratory Competency– Risk Analysis– Food Safety Regulatory Systems
![Page 33: Food Safety Capacity Building in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation: Positive Impacts on Trade and Public Health Robert Brackett, Ph.D. IIT VP and Director](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dd45503460f94acba24/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
A Global Model
• The PTIN has partnered with international donor organizations and institutions
• Eventually, the PTIN public-private partnership model could address food safety capacity building needs on a sustainable basis worldwide
