CTF / Cabo Verde to raise awareness by distributing tailor-made video on Codex
With the support of the Independent Regulatory Authority for Health (ERIS), Cabo Verde has been strengthening its national capacities in Codex Alimentarius matters through the FAO/WHO Codex Trust Fund II (CTF II).
This video is one of the outcomes of the activities carried out under the Cabo Verde CTF II Project. It seeks to raise awareness about the importance of Codex and its work, whose standards are recognized worldwide as the key references for food producers, regulatory authorities, consumers, and the international food trade.
The video will be disseminated through ERIS’s digital communication channels — Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube — as well as on Cabo Verde’s national television and radio stations.
