Promoting healthy eating is the main objective on which Vétérinaires Sans Frontières Suisse (VSF-Suisse) and SOS DOCTEUR TV intend to work over the next three months. On Monday 19 September, the non-governmental organisation and the TV health channel signed a partnership agreement to encourage people to take a closer look at what they eat, particularly the meat of small ruminants.

Since January 2020, VSF-Suisse has been implementing its ‘Food security based on meat from social entrepreneurship (SALVES)’ project in Togo. Through this project, the organisation aims to improve the supply of better quality meat for consumers, mainly in Lomé.

To achieve this objective, it intends to rely on the 100% health channel SOS DOCTEUR TV. "We identified SOS DOCTEUR TV over a year ago as a medium that helps to raise public awareness of health issues. As part of our project, we approached the medium to reach people with food safety messages as part of our SALVES project", said Dr Hellow Geraud, Country Director of VSF-Switzerland.

"We would like to congratulate the directors of Vétérinaires Sans Frontières Suisse, who for some time have been developing a communication strategy aimed at the general public to bring about a real change in behaviour in slaughterhouses.We are pleased to support this initiative", said Dr Serge Michel Kodom, Promoter of SOS DOCTEUR TV.

Vétérinaires Sans Frontières Suisse (VSF-Suisse) is an international NGO based in Bern, Switzerland, which has been working in Togo since 2002 in the fields of livestock farming, animal health, environmental protection and the economic development of vulnerable populations.
