Why we are partecipating in the project

Morocco, like many countries, seeks to guarantee food for citizens, so it has taken the necessary measures to improve food security and food quality. In addition, at national level, food safety has become a major concern for health services, inspection services and consumers.
Hence, the need for training in the field of food safety to ensure that there are technicians available to apply existing standards, to improve food hygiene and food safety.
The creation of this Master will contribute to a greater integration of researchers within the Agri-food industry.
