This project is aligned with the goals and priorities of the Food Safety Outreach Program (FSOP). Our objectives are to: 1) identify specific food safety training priorities within tribal communities; 2) build the capacity of tribal growers and other stakeholders in Arizona to address food safety training priorities; 3) develop and implement culturally appropriate integrated food safety education and outreach programs to tribal communities in Arizona; and 4) advance food safety resilience of Native Nations and foster enduring relationships that will continue beyond the life of this project.This project will promote a new approach - connecting food safety with integrated pest management (IPM) - to increase food safety capacity in tribal communities, enhance the acceptance of food safety practices, strengthen and expand existing networks and develop/mentor new educators/scientists as future leaders in tribal communities. Our novel approach will improve food safety outcomes and respectfully enhance resilience within underserved communities, and serve as a model for future outreach to tribal communities. We will also foster enduring relationships expected to continue beyond the duration of this project.Expected outcomes/impacts include: 1) improved awareness and knowledge of food safety practices and solutions to protect public health and reduce food-borne illnesses; 2) cultivated positive attitude toward adopting food safety practices, and 3) improved engagement with underserved stakeholder audiences challenged by food safety issues. We anticipate that lessons learned in this project will also be shared with other tribes through the Western Regional Center to Enhance Food Safety and other partner organizations, multiplying our impacts.
