Workshop aim
The CCQM Task Group on Food Measurement (CCQM-TG-FOOD) is being formed to reformulate current strategic plans to provide a description of the CCQM and international metrology planned activities for the period 2021-2030 in relation to food safety and food measurement, identify gaps of unmet requirements, provide liaison to other technical areas overseen by the CIPM that have food measurement activities, and identify stakeholder engagement opportunities.
The CCQM-TG-FOOD is holding a forward-looking workshop to gain an understanding of the future metrological needs and challenges for stakeholders in food production industries and regulatory agencies. Especially, it is aimed to:
- identify unmet stakeholder engagement opportunities and how these could be exploited to promote the benefits of metrology and NMI services or used to identify new measurement needs;
- liaise with other CCs and identify measurements related to food and food safety covered by activities in these communities that could be incorporated into broader document covering food measurements issues and needs including those outside chemical and biological measurements.
