This includes animal production, animal health and welfare, aquaculture, marine resources, plant production and protection, biodiversity and restoration of nature, forestry, food safety, land, water and soil management. With national offices in over 130 countries, five regional offices and its headquarters, FAO supports countries to detect, prevent and contain AMR in line with its action plan on AMR. Launched in 2024, the 10-year flagship initiative Reduce the Need for Antimicrobials on Farms for Sustainable Agrifood Systems Transformation (RENOFARM) as well as the International FAO Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (InFARM), a global platform for harmonized farm-level AMR and antimicrobial use (AMU) data, are key mechanisms to achieving FAO’s commitment to reduce the need for antimicrobial use in agrifood systems by 2030. FAO has implemented AMR-related activities through over 62 projects, supporting over 70 countries to increase their capacity to address AMR through sustainable transformation of agrifood systems. This technical brief provides an overview of FAO’s work on AMR over the past two years (2023–2024) according to the FAO Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance 2021–2025. -
