We have an all-star food allergen speaker list, featuring:
BEATRICE POVOLO, Director, Advocacy & Media Relations, Food Allergy Canada

& SAMUEL GODEFROY, Full Professor, Food Risk Analysis and Regulatory Policies, Department of Food Science, Université Laval

Summary: A multi-stakeholder collaboration in Canada, involving food manufacturers, Université Laval, Canadian Allergists, and Canada’s national patient organization, Food Allergy Canada, has led to the development of new proposed Allergen Management Guidelines for Food Manufacturers. These guidelines aim to help to support food manufacturers in their implementation of effective allergen control plans including the responsible use of Precautionary Allergen Labelling, to better meet the needs of Canadians managing food allergy. Join us to hear from Food Allergy Canada and Université Laval on the launch of the new guidelines and related resources for the food industry.
