Coordinator
SAFE - SAFE FOOD ADVOCACY EUROPE
SAFE - Safe Food Advocacy Europe was the project coordinator of the Nutrimodule project. SAFE was created in 2015 out of a concern for public health related to food issues. One of the most influential factors of the EU’s food legislation is lobbying, therefore the large majority of EU legislation is influenced by lobbyists. There are more than 30.000 lobbyists in Brussels, 70% of them are working for businesses, only 10% work for NGOs. Thus, SAFE was created to ensure that consumers’ health and concerns remain at the core of the EU’s food legislation. SAFE is a Brussels-based NGO focusing only on the protection and representation of EU consumers in the food sector. SAFE monitors the EU’s food legislation process and cooperates with EU legislators and its actors to draft comprehensive food regulations.
