Book (stand-alone)Note d’orientation technique relative à l’eau, l’assainissement et l’hygiène et la gestion des eaux usées pour prévenir les infections et réduire la propagation de la résistance aux antimicrobiens 2020
Also available in:
La présente note d’orientation technique contient des informations destinées à orienter l’intégration de mesures de WASH et de gestion des eaux usées dans les plans d’action nationaux (PAN) multisectoriels de résistance aux antimicrobiens (RAM). Il comprend un résumé des données et la justification des avantages conjoints pour l’action dans chaque secteur. Il présente également un ensemble d’activités qu’il convient à chaque pays d’examiner et de peaufiner. La note d’orientation technique recense également les options politiques spécifiques au secteur et des informations supplémentaires, y compris les besoins en matière de connaissances et de recherche, ainsi que les ressources techniques supplémentaires devant soutenir la planification et la mise en œuvre. -
BookletRegional Legal Report on results of analysis of legislation relevant to antimicrobial use and antimicrobial resistance in the food and agriculture sector in Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan 2023
Also available in:
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health threat, that has been exacerbated by the inappropriate and excessive use of antimicrobials, especially in the human and livestock-related food-producing sectors. The Regional Legal Report presents the results of an analysis of the national legislation relevant to antimicrobial use (AMU) and AMR in the food and agriculture sector that has been conducted in Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan. The document discusses the findings of the legal analysis, gives recommendations for addressing weaknesses and formulates proposals for improving existing legislation in each country, with the ultimate goal of limiting the imprudent use of antimicrobials, and therefore decreasing the spread of AMR in food and agriculture. -
BookletSurveillance data of the Indian Network for Fishery and Animal Antimicrobial Resistance (INFAAR)
An analytical report 2019–2022
2024Also available in:
No results found.Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is now recognized as a major global public health problem which has been aggravated by the irrational use of antimicrobial agents in human and animal health as well as the presence of these agents in the environment. AMR in animal pathogens makes disease treatments ineffective, increases the severity of the disease, reduces productivity and leads to economic losses. In addition, more than half the quantity of antimicrobials used in animals/fish is excreted as waste contaminating soil, water and the environment. This also contributes to the emergence and spread of AMR through selection pressure on microorganisms in the environment. Besides, antimicrobial usage (AMU) can lead to presence of antimicrobial residues in edible animal/fish products which could become a public health risk. Understanding the dynamics of AMR and its surveillance can only be done through quality laboratory services.Laboratory-based surveillance is an integral part of Objective 2 of the National Action Plan of India (2017–2021), which was developed in alignment with the Global Action Plan for AMR.The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), with technical assistance from FAO, has established a network of its institutions, the Indian Network for Fishery and Animal Antimicrobial Resistance (INFAAR), to generate nationally representative surveillance data on AMR.
