Through the Advisory Forum (AF), EFSA and the Member States can join forces in addressing European risk assessment and risk communication issues. Members use the Forum to advise EFSA on scientific matters, its work programme and priorities, and to identify emerging risks as early as possible. Members aim to share scientific information, pool resources and co-ordinate work programmes with EFSA and each other, specifically on:

• Exchange of scientific data
• Coordinating risk communication activities and messages
• Addressing contentious issues and diverging opinions
• Coordinate work and avoid duplication
