Book (series)Technical reportUniversity curriculum assessment on the learning outcomes related to antimicrobial resistance at the Institute of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Husbandry at the West Kazakhstan Agrarian and Technical University named after Zhangir Khan
Assessment report
2025Also available in:
No results found.The Strengthening Veterinary Education on Antimicrobial Resistance series compiles assessment reports of veterinary education institutions, detailing strengths and areas for improvement in the institutions’ curricula, and recommendations to enhance their education on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) learning outcomes (LOs). Data was gathered through assessments performed using the Ohio State University's "Evaluation Tool to Assess AMR Learning Outcomes". This issue of the series summarizes the findings of the assessment conducted at the Institute of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Husbandry at the West Kazakhstan Agrarian and Technical University named after Zhangir Khan (WKATU) in Uralsk, Kazakhstan.The curriculum assessment at WKATU was performed in 2023, and involved a total of 23 participants, i.e. assessors, from the Institute of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Husbandry. During the assessment, participants reported on a total of 82 AMR LOs, evaluating whether they were covered by the curriculum or not and how proficient an average Day 1 veterinary graduate (D1VG) at the institution was in the given topics.Overall, the average D1VG of the Institute of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Husbandry at WKATU was considered fully proficient in the following fields: antimicrobial stewardship,antimicrobial drugs and AMR, roles and relationships, and critical analysis. Findings and recommendations summarized in this report will help to strengthen veterinary education at WKATU via ensuring adequate coverage of topics related to AMR and prudent antimicrobial use (AMU) and will therefore decrease the risk of resistance development in the food and agriculture sector in Kazakhstan. -

This issue of the series summarizes the findings of the assessment conducted at the Department of Veterinary Medicine in the Faculty of Science and Technology at the Jalal-Abad State University named after B. Osmonov (JASU) in Kyrgyzstan.The curriculum assessment at JASU was performed in 2023, and involved a total of 22 participants, i.e. assessors, from the Department of Veterinary Medicine. During the assessment, participants reported on a total of 82 AMR LOs, evaluating whether they were covered by the curriculum or not and how proficient an average Day 1 veterinary graduate (D1VG) at the institution was in the given topics.Overall, the Department of Veterinary Medicine at JASU performed very well in the assessment: the average D1VG was considered to be proficient in 95 percent of the LOs assessed. Findings and recommendations summarized in this report will help to strengthen veterinary education at JASU via ensuring adequate coverage of topics related to AMR and prudent antimicrobial use (AMU) and will therefore decrease the risk of resistance development in the food and agriculture sector in Kyrgyzstan. -

No results found.The Strengthening Veterinary Education on Antimicrobial Resistance series compiles assessment reports of veterinary education institutions, detailing strengths and areas for improvement in the institutions’ curricula, and recommendations to enhance their education on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) learning outcomes (LOs). Data was gathered through assessments performed using the Ohio State University's "Evaluation Tool to Assess AMR Learning Outcomes". This issue of the series summarizes the findings of the assessment conducted at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at the Kazakh National Agrarian Research University (KazNARU) in Almaty, Kazakhstan.The curriculum assessment at KazNARU was performed in 2023, and involved a total of 24 participants, i.e. assessors, from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. During the assessment, participants reported on a total of 82 AMR LOs, evaluating whether they were covered by the curriculum or not and how proficient an average Day 1 veterinary graduate (D1VG) at the institution was in the given topics.Overall, the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at KazNARU performed well in the assessment: the average D1VG was considered to be proficient in 68 percent of the LOs assessed. The faculty performed best in LOs in the fields of Antimicrobial Stewardship and worst in Global Impact. Findings and recommendations summarized in this report will help to strengthen veterinary education at KazNARU via ensuring adequate coverage of topics related to AMR and prudent antimicrobial use (AMU) and will therefore decrease the risk of resistance development in the food and agriculture sector in Kazakhstan.

Book (series)Technical reportAntimicrobial use practices in the livestock sector in Tajikistan
Survey report
2025Also available in:
No results found.The Understanding Antimicrobial Use in Food and Agriculture series is a compilation of country reports, each describing antimicrobial use (AMU) practices and awareness of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the livestock sector. The data presented in these reports was obtained through knowledge-attitude-practices (KAP) field surveys conducted with farmers of priority livestock production systems, field veterinarians, veterinary pharmacies, and feed mills. This issue of the series summarizes the results of interviews performed in Tajikistan between February and July 2022.In Tajikistan, surveys targeted 603 farms of priority livestock production systems (beef cattle, dairy cattle, small ruminants, chickens, bees, and backyard), 103 veterinarians, 112 veterinary pharmacies and 12 feed mills. Participants were interviewed face-to-face between 15 February and 19 July 2022. Farm surveys were conducted along with the collection of faecal and milk samples for AMR testing. After completion of the survey, participants were provided with an information leaflet on the use of antibiotics in livestock, and misconceptions were explained to them.This report is the first of its kind to provide a comprehensive overview of AMU in the livestock sector in Tajikistan, including the sources of antibiotics, the main use patterns (e.g. common routes of administration; the aim of use, such as treatment, prevention or growth promotion; and the use in different age groups), the main indications of antimicrobial treatment, drugs used in different animal species, the handling of antibiotics, and awareness of AMR. The analysis found important gaps in the knowledge and practices of participants, such as the use of antimicrobials to enhancegrowth or production, the lack of some biosecurity measures, and the supply of antibiotics without prescriptions. Targeting these gaps in the future could lead to a reduced need for antimicrobials and would support the prudent use of them, thus reducing the risk of AMR development. -
