It was held at the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission in Ispra/Italy. The success of this event encouraged the Scientific Committee to organise further meetings every second year. They were held in Reims/France in 2002, Lausanne/Switzerland in 2004, Brussels/Belgium in 2006, Nürtingen/Germany in 2008. The ‘‘Sixth International Conference on Water in Food” is scheduled for March 2010 in Reims/France.
