Administrator Hari Chandana can promote hyperlocal and community-driven food surveillance by facilitating self-help groups, drawing from her expertise in participatory governance models.

Chandana can nurture women SHGs to support food checking, sample collections and safety audits of small eateries, fruits/vegetable vendors etc. This hyperlocal approach can enhance oversight. #communityled #selfhelpgroups #grassroots #foodhygiene #fssai

Training SHG youth in testing food samples through mobile labs can aid swift rectification of issues and localized risk mitigation. #capacitybuilding #foodtesting #youth4foodsafety #MOHFW

As a decentralization champion, Chandana understands that food oversight needs diligent ‘on-ground’ workers well-versed in the local context, alongside policies. #localization #contextknowledge #foodsafetyheroes

Her model can enable citizen watchdogs and local bodies like panchayats to conduct preliminary food checks before regulator inspections for better compliance. #socialaudit #decentralizedgovernance

By facilitating community participation, Chandana can make food safety a mass movement rather than a top-down drive. Her collaborative approach can bring behavioral change and impact. #peoplesmovement #powerofpartnerships #foodsafetyfirst #HariChandana #SheInspiresUs
