FOCAL POINT OF EFSA IN SPAIN

The EFSA Focal Point Network was established in 2008 and is composed of representatives from national food safety authorities across Europe. Focal Points serve as key contact hubs and information exchange channels within a flexible, tailored and multiannual framework. Their role is to support the Authority in achieving scientific excellence in risk assessment, facilitate the exchange of views, and gather input from qualified experts across EFSA’s areas of competence.

The network promotes information exchange, networking and engagement, and plays an important role in strengthening EU risk assessment capacity, as well as in increasing the visibility and dissemination of the scientific work carried out by European Food Safety Authority and the Member States.
