Currently, food safety hazards have introduced as one of the most important threats to public health worldwide. Considering numerous crises in the field of food safety at global, regional, and national levels, and their impact on the physical and mental health of consumers, it is very vital to evaluate risk communication strategies in each country. Food safety risk communication (FSRC) aims to provide the means for individuals to protect their health from food safety risks and make informed decisions about food risks. The purpose of this study is to present FSRC as one of the key parts of risk analysis, its importance considering the prevalence of food contamination and recent crises related to food. Additionally, the stages of implementation of FSRC are mentioned. In FSRC, it is essential to comply with the principles and prerequisites. There are various strategies for FSRC nowadays. Different platforms for FSRC are rapidly evolving. Choosing and evaluating the appropriate strategy according to the target group, consensus of stakeholders, cooperation and coordination of risk assessors and risk managers have a significant impact in order to improve and implement FSRC.
目前，食品安全危害已被视为全球公共卫生面临的最重要威胁之一。鉴于全球、区域和国家层面食品安全领域的众多危机及其对消费者身心健康的影响，评估各国的风险沟通策略至关重要。食品安全风险沟通（FSRC）旨在为个人提供手段，以保护其健康免受食品安全风险影响，并就食品风险做出明智决策。本研究的目的是将食品安全风险沟通作为风险分析的关键部分之一呈现出来，考虑到食品污染的普遍性以及近期与食品相关的危机，阐述其重要性。此外，还提及了食品安全风险沟通的实施阶段。在食品安全风险沟通中，遵守原则和先决条件至关重要。如今有各种食品安全风险沟通策略。不同的食品安全风险沟通平台正在迅速发展。根据目标群体、利益相关者的共识、风险评估人员和风险管理人员的合作与协调来选择和评估合适的策略，对于改进和实施食品安全风险沟通具有重大影响。
