“In 2012, the International Food Protection Training Institute (IFPTI) working with the Association of Food & Drug Officials (AFDO) and the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) used the CIFOR toolkit as a model to produce the Integrated Food Safety System (IFSS) toolkit. The IFSS toolkit allows stakeholders within a state, district, or region to self-assess their integration efforts and identify actions that would allow them to work in a more coordinated and effective fashion. We successfully piloted the toolkit in the states of Michigan and Georgia. AFDO, IFPTI and FDA are grateful for the opportunity to extend the use of the CIFOR Toolkit to IFSS stakeholders.”
