Please take some time to learn more about the purpose of this coalition and how you can become a part of it.

The Global Coalition for Sustained Excellence in Food & Health Protection has been launched to encourage a worldwide mobilization to:

– protect public health

– promote regulatory compliance

– produce sufficient, nutritious, affordable and safe food (including safe water supply),

– produce reliable pharmaceutical and other health products

– keep products fresh and within reasonable shelf life

– avoid wastage

– ensure equitable and efficient distribution of food and health products

– encourage social responsibility

– maintain environmental sustainability

Interested individuals and organizations may join this campaign. It is not limited to the food and pharmaceutical industry. It is also not limited to any one jurisdiction because countless people and organizations worldwide are involved in different ways in the production, protection and distribution of food, pharmaceuticals and other health-related products.

The Central Message:

At home or abroad, products will be safer when we no longer ignore this fact: Food & health protection excellence will be achieved when we no longer offer our products and services or perform our duties for the benefit of “others” presumed to be irrelevant, or for the benefit of “outside” customers and consumers who are merely viewed as opportunities for business.

 

"We are the consumers. Upon this crucial realization we stand with the determination to maintain excellence in our contributions to ensuring our protection from any harm caused by food or health products. We must be better protected but not without our deliberate action to ensure this protection. Our reputation as food and health protection professionals and practitioners, and our confidence as consumers, depend on this realization. Our health and economic survival are at stake. Therefore, we shall settle for nothing less than excellence.The measurable success in food and health protection that is achieved through our collaboration must no longer be an elusive reality. We must know that, as consumers, we are protected. Else we shall not rest in our deliberate action to ensure food and health protection – our protection." (GCSE-Food & Health Protection, Membership Guide, page 3).
