Synopsis (short abstract) Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is arguably the most complex threat to global health security, potentially leading to millions of deaths a year and hundreds of billions of dollars lost in annual economic growth. It threatens to compromise the global community’s progress towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The strength of the Tripartite - FAO/OIE/WHO - is founded on the long-standing partnership, combined technical knowledge and global convening power of the three organizations; collectively they offer robust, cost-effective and efficient solutions to addressing complex health problems faced by the global community. Given the transnational and multi-sectoral nature of AMR and the support requested from countries and other stakeholders, the Tripartite in collaboration with UN Environment is scaling up existing efforts to support countries to urgently counter this immediate threat through a One Health approach. The Tripartite has established the ‘Combatting Antimicrobial Resistance through a One Health approach: AMR Multi-Partner Trust Fund (AMR MPTF)’ for an initial five-year period (2019-2024), inviting partnership and financing to drive forward the delivery of the Global Action Plan on AMR and a compelling Theory of Change.

In 2019, the international community made significant strides in addressing antimicrobial resistance (AMR), notably with the establishment of the AMR Multi-Partner Trust Fund (AMR MPTF) on 1 August 2019. The Tripartite partnership—comprising the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), and the World Health Organization (WHO)—focused on creating a solid operational framework for the Fund. Key activities from April to December 2019 included:- The ad hoc UN Interagency Coordination Group on AMR report transmission;- Development and dissemination of the AMR MPTF leaflet;- High-level meetings and conferences, including a Ministerial Conference in The Netherlands;- Signing of Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) and establishment of an AMR MPTF webpage;- Initial financial contributions from the Netherlands and Sweden.The AMR MPTF aims to support the implementation of One Health National Action Plans, providing policy support, technical assistance, and promoting responsible antimicrobial use. Key achievements in 2019 were in administrative organization, technical documentation development, and initial resource mobilization, securing 10 percent of the targeted USD70 million fund. The efforts laid a strong foundation for continued progress in combating AMR through coordinated global action.

In 2019, the Tripartite Joint Secretariat (FAO, OIE, and WHO) launched the AMR Multi-Partner Trust Fund (MPTF) to scale up action in low- and lower-middle-income countries to address antimicrobial resistance (AMR) as well as set up joint, global-level activities. In 2020, the Tripartite put in place the necessary frameworks, tools, and standards to select countries and develop global programmes that will be supported by the MPTF. The following report will provide an overview of the country and global projects, their current implementation status, the fund’s financial resources as well as the next steps.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global threat to humans, animals, plants, food systems and the environment. Without investment and commitments from countries globally to address this challenge, AMR will continue unabated. The Antimicrobial Resistance Multi-Partner Trust Fund (AMR MPTF) has successfully begun the essential work to address this challenge. With the overall goal of “having reduced levels of AMR and slower development of resistance” in 10 years’ time, the AMR MPTF has seen, in 2021, the initial steps towards this goal, with capacity built in 8 countries, and coordinated steppingstones under the global programme. Despite continuous restrictions caused by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, throughout 2021 collaboration between the Quadripartite organizations – the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Health Organization (WHO) – sustained strong implementation progress at global, regional and country level. Progress against the overarching AMR MPTF results matrix is now being reported for the first time. This was possible through the financial partnership of the Governments of Netherlands, the United Kingdom (using UK aid funding through the Fleming Fund), Sweden (including through the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency – Sida) as well as Germany (through the German Agency for International Cooperation – GIZ).
