Salud con lupa highlights findings of project on meat safety, with participation of GRADE researchers

“The research showed that there was a high presence of salmonella in the raw chicken cuts tested. The presence of salmonella in pork was lower, but still of concern.”

Salud con lupa highlights the findings of the project Gobernanza e Inocuidad en la Cadena de Carne del Perú en mercados de abasto de tres ciudades, published in our recent Análisis & Propuestas 68. The policy brief was written by Giel Ton (IDS), Mauricio Espinoza (GRADE) and Eloy Gonzales (UNMSM).

The project was funded by FONDECYT-Concytec Peru and Medical Research Council (UK), as part of the Newton-Paulet fund supported by UK in Peru – British Embassy Lima.
