Book (stand-alone)Monitoring and evaluation of the global action plan on antimicrobial resistance: framework and recommended indicators 2019
Also available in:
No results found.The Global Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance (GAP) is the world’s blueprint for tackling the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which threatens many of the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on health, food security, environmental wellbeing and socio-economic development. Adopted by the membership of WHO, FAO and OIE in 2015, the GAP was further endorsed in 2016 during the 71st session of the UN General Assembly. The framework for monitoring and evaluation of the GAP aims to provide a manageable system to assess the success of the GAP and inform operational and strategic decision making on AMR for the next five to ten years. This framework will enhance the availability and quality of data, consolidate data collection and reporting requirements – especially for human health – and increase accountability. Rooted in experience and expertise across diverse sectors, this initiative will also underpin the forthcoming global development and stewardship framework for AMR. -
Book (stand-alone)The FAO Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance 2021–2025
Supporting innovation and resilience in food and agriculture sectors
2021Due to antimicrobial resistance (AMR), drug-resistant infections are placing an ever-increasing burden on human, animal, plant, and environmental health. Drug-resistant infections have the potential to become leading causes of death. AMR may force tens of millions more people into extreme poverty, hunger, and malnutrition, and the associated economic losses are projected at several percent of gross domestic product. However, we can prevent this from happening – if we act quickly. This document outlines the FAO Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance 2021–2025 which serves as a roadmap for focusing global efforts to address AMR in the food and agriculture sectors. The aim of this plan is to help accelerate progress in developing and implementing multi-sectoral National Action Plans to tackle AMR by calling attention to strategic priorities and areas of expertise for FAO support. The action plan was developed by a multidisciplinary FAO team to ensure that all relevant dimensions – including terrestrial and aquatic animal health and production, crop production, food and feed safety, genetic resources, natural resource management, risk communication, and behavior change - are considered, with attention to regulatory frameworks, standards, norm-setting and bottom-up processes of collective action. By working together, food systems, livelihoods, and economies will be better protected from the destabilizing forces of untreatable illness. -
