The Quadripartite – comprising the FAO, UNEP, WHO and the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) – released the One Health Priority Research Agenda on Antimicrobial Resistance.
The concept acknowledges the health of humans, domestic and wild animals, plants, and the larger environment, including ecosystems, are inextricably linked and interdependent.
At this One Health interface, addressing global health issues necessitates a multisectoral, multidisciplinary response to AMR.
The five key pillars are Transmission, Integrated surveillance, Interventions, Behavioural insights and change, Economics and policy.
It will serve as a guide for countries, research institutes and funding bodies to support One Health AMR research.
It will also allow policymakers, researchers, and the multidisciplinary scientific community to collaborate across sectors.
