|Five keys to safer food |
In response to the increasing number of requests from countries to assist in strengthening their food safety education programmes for the prevention of foodborne diseases, WHO has developed a Train the Trainer Programme on the Five Keys to Safer Food which provides guidance on how to both educate and promote adoption of safe food handling behaviours. The first module was designed to target women as women play an important role in the production and the preparation of safe food. WHO plans to extend the adaptation of this training to other settings, including school children, street-food vendors, health educators working in rural settings and people living with HIV/AIDS.
Module 1, targeted to women, was pilot tested in South Africa, Tunisia and Belize and will be published in June 2009.
This training programme builds upon the concepts of Communications for Behavioural Impact (COMBI),a communication method developed by WHO, and is designed to go beyond education and foster the adoption of safe food handling behaviours.

The Department of health of South Africa adopted the Train the Trainer Programme to train food handlers in preparation of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. In February 2009, the Tswhane University of Technology presented the training sessions to lecturers from 6 universities of technology situated in Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, Bloemfontein, Durban, Johannesburg and Pretoria who are responsible for the training of Environmental Health Practitioners in Food Hygiene and Community Development. All the candidates indicated afterwards that they are in a position to continue with the roll-out of the programme through their respective institutions.
The 5 Keys poster is already available in Zulu and Tshwana and translations in Tsonga, Swazi, Afrikaans, Venda, Ndebele, Sotho, Xhosa and Pedi are in process to cover all the local South African languages.

In January 2008, l'Agence Nationale de Contrôle Sanitaire et Environmental des Produits (ANCSEP) organized the second pilot session of the Train the Trainer Programme targeted to women. As part of its strategy to encourage the implementation of the Training programme in the various educational sectors, ANCSEP asked the participants to propose a training project. The best projects will be selected by ANCSEP and ANCSEP and will support their implementation in collaboration with WHO.

|Discussion group, Belize training |
The Ministry of Health, Belize, is now considering to include the Train the Trainer programme on Five Keys targeted to women in the training of food inspectors and health educators. WHO also piloted in Belize for the first time the second module targeted to health educators working in rural communities. The participants concluded that the Five Keys model would be relevant for rural settings and further development of Module 2 is now under consideration.
