In an unprecedented move reflecting our unwavering commitment to fostering widespread participation and engagement across the global food safety community, the Core Committee of the World Food Safety Day has declared a landmark policy on March 01, 2024. It has been unanimously decided that all registrations and attendances for the World Food Safety Conferences will be entirely complimentary (100% FREE OF COST). The WFSD Management firmly asserts that no fees or payments will be solicited from delegates, contingent upon adherence to the prescribed delegate allocation per organization.
This decision to waive all costs is aligned with our strategic objective to diversify and enrich participation from all sectors of the food supply chain. To ensure a broad representation and equitable opportunity for engagement, a policy to limit the number of delegates from any given organization has been instituted. This measure is designed to maximize the inclusivity and diversity of perspectives, fostering a richer dialogue and more comprehensive collaboration among food chain stakeholders.
While the foundational principle of this year’s conference is to offer free registration to support our mission of inclusive stakeholder engagement, we acknowledge unique situations may arise. Therefore, a fee structure has been outlined solely for informational purposes. We remain open to accommodating enrollment requests that may exceed the standard delegate limit per organization, provided such requests are technically and administratively justified to the satisfaction of the WFSD Management.
In light of this significant policy update, we cordially invite all interested parties to review the detailed registration policy meticulously before proceeding with the application process. This review will ensure a thorough understanding of the guidelines and facilitate a smooth and efficient enrollment experience.
The decision to eliminate registration fees underscores our dedication to removing barriers to participation, enabling a more inclusive and comprehensive discourse on food safety. As we move forward, we are excited to welcome a diverse array of voices and expertise to the World Food Safety Day Conferences, united in our goal to advance food safety standards and practices in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
We look forward to your valuable contributions and to collaborating with you in shaping a safer food future for all.
