• The challenge
• The Nordic countries, NCM and NICe are all
  running research and innovation programmes on
  food. The food safety aspect of these research
  program-mes are however fragmented and the
  funding is both insufficient and sub optimal.
• The suggested solution
• 1) A coordinated response towards this challenge
  by improving co-ordination
• of the national/regional programmes through
  networking.
• 2) However, Food Safety is a global challenge,
  too large to be met by the
• Nordic countries acting alone.

• 35 million cases of food poisoning within the
  EU each
• year, unknown number of deaths (population
  480 million)
• 76 million illnesses and 5000 deaths in US each
  year
• (population 268 million)
• One-third of the populations of developed
  countries may
• be effected by food borne illness each year
• Only a fraction of outbreaks is reported

ERA-NET This could take the form of a Community
top-up for joint calls of proposals (to the tune
of 30 of total costs, provided a number of
conditions are satisfied), where participating
entities create a common fund for the purpose of
the action. As such, the ERA-NET mechanism,
which will remain a simple and flexible
coordination mechanism between national or
regional research programmes, could become a more
effective bridge toward..
