Solution

Provides guidance on designing AMR surveillance in bacteria from healthy animals and food.

Impact

- Provided guidance in the development of regionally-customized panel of antimicrobials for AST (microbroth dilution for MIC and disk diffusion)
- Provided regional AMR data management template which is aligned with the WHONET configuration for ease of transition
- It has been used in different countries in South East Asia (Cambodia, Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Viet Nam) and there is an ongoing process to adapt the guidelines for AMR surveillance in East Africa.
