With winter camping and outdoor gatherings surging across the country, the Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority (ADAFSA) has launched a targeted awareness campaign warning desert-goers and park visitors against food safety lapses that could put public health at risk.

Timed with the peak winter season, when camping and open-air dining become increasingly popular, the campaign seeks to reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses by promoting safe food handling practices and reinforcing ADAFSA's commitment to safeguarding community well-being.
