    The World Health Organization (WHO) considers antimicrobial resistance one of the top 10 global health emergencies affecting humanity; antimicrobial use in animal production is one of its key drivers. Globally, animal production accounts for about three quarters of total antimicrobial use. In Viet Nam, approximately 2751 tonnes of antimicrobials are used in animal production annually, with pig and poultry using the highest amounts. Levels of antimicrobial resistance in foodborne zoonotic pathogens (that is, non-typhoidal Salmonella) and antimicrobial residues in food products are also high in the country.

    This publication is a building block of the Eastern Africa antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance roadmap that was described in April 2019, by AMR experts from Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, South Sudan, Sudan and Uganda. The roadmap is presented in chapter six of this document. The national AMR experts came together in a regional meeting organized by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and also attended by other national, regional and international organizations such as the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH), International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-Kenya, University of Nairobi (UON), Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI), World Animal Protection (WAP) and African Union-Interagency Bureau for Animal Resources (AU-IBAR). The aim of the roadmap is to set out the processes, tools and coordination that technical experts and decision-makers from within national governments in East Africa agreed should be undertaken at regional level to support development and implementation of national AMR surveillance strategies and plans.
