Dear partner in food protection,
I am taking this opportunity to wish you all the best in your endeavors. I
also wish to let you know that GCSE-Food & Health Protection has grown considerably
in membership. Further accelerated growth is anticipated. From all
indications, the coalition’s promise of maintaining relevance worldwide is
already being fulfilled. So many opportunities have been and are continuing to
be provided for the participation of individuals like you both for your
personal benefit and for the benefit of society.
If you have not already added your voice to this coalition, I invite you
to join and contribute as much as you wish, and as time permits. You should not
let concerns about not having the time prevent you from joining. There are no
mandatory and time-constrained demands. By joining the coalition you would
already have made a very significant contribution. Inviting even one other person
to join is another very valuable contribution that you could make. Please join in
spreading the message. We are the consumers that we seek to protect.
In spite of administrative cost pressures and the examples of other
groups that charge fees for membership, GCSE-Food & Health Protection is
maintaining its resolve not to charge membership fees or dues. It intends to continue
with funding its programs through voluntary donations.
The number of countries with members has grown considerably and
National Coordinators are still needed for several countries. If you are
interested, or you know anyone who may be interested in helping as a National
Coordinator in your country please contact the GCSE-FHP
Team via email: gcse@afisservices.com.
If you wish, you may view the qualifications
and roles of a National Coordinator.
Here are other coalition information links that may be
of interest:
Please join me in spreading the message and inviting people to join the
coalition. We need to earnestly and collaboratively tackle the various
challenges facing our world: food-borne illness outbreaks, fraud, drug-related health
problems, product recalls, product wastage and shortages are just a few of the
challenges.
If you are already a member, I very much appreciate
your membership and I encourage you to actively participate in any of the
forums and programs via the links provided above. If you are not yet a member, I am personally looking
forward to seeing you join the coalition.
Sincerely,
Felix Amiri
Food Sector Chair, GCSE-FHP
