Ich übersetze eine Grafik, in der die Tätigkeits- bzw. Kompetenzbereiche eines Hochschulinstituts im Bereich Agrar-/Forstwissenschaften dargestellt sind. In einer der Blasen steht

Food and nutrition security, safety and quality

Wie unterscheidet ihr hier zwischen «security» und «safety»?
Der Bereich, zu dem diese Blase gehört, heisst übrigens «Integrated landscape management and food systems».

Reference: safety vs. security

Reference information:
Safe and safety, for example, push emotional buttons that secure and security don’t. We speak of national security, but personal safety. Threatened townspeople seek the security of castle walls, but a frightened child runs to the safety of her father’s arms.
Security surrounds, but safety enfolds. Perhaps the lingering differences between the words can be found in their differing etymologies.
Safe comes from Latin salvus, “uninjured, healthy. It’s related to salus, “good health.”
Secure comes from Latin securus, “without care,” from se, “free from,” and cura, “care.”
To my mind, security suggests freedom from worries that derive from knowing that certain external safeguards are in place and that I can rely on them to protect me and my property. Safety is a richer word that includes an inner certainty that all is well. In a sense, security is external, while safety is internal.
