Descripción
The advance of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is a major threat to human, animal, plant and environmental health. While countries have committed to developing National Action Plans (NAPs) on AMR, efforts have predominantly focused on human health, with limited attention given to the food and agriculture sectors. This project supported Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan in addressing this gap by strengthening their NAPs on AMR with a focus on the food and agriculture sectors. The project aimed to reduce the adverse impacts of AMR on food and agriculture by strengthening technical capacities and creating enabling environments for national actions by focusing on three main outputs: (i) strengthened regulatory and legal frameworks and policies for the use of antimicrobials in food, agriculture, fisheries and animal farming; (ii) enhanced national laboratory capacities, surveillance systems and infrastructure for AMR; (iii) improved multisectoral coordination and strategic advocacy to raise awareness of AMR risks for humans, animals, plants and the environment.
