The Regional Tripartite (FAO/OIE/WHO) in partnership with UNEP has developed a new set of videos to highlight the fight against antimicrobial resistance (AMR). AMR is a huge global problem which threatens our ability to combat infections in both humans and animals.
The Regional Tripartite and partners have identified AMR as a key priority which requires a One Health approach, with multisectoral collaboration. Organisations and sectors are therefore working together in the region and globally to tackle the issue.
There are three key messages in the videos:
1. Dispose of antibiotics with health professionals.
2. Follow prescription recommendations.
3. Use good hygiene practices.
The new videos were launched 6th July 2020, in association with a publication from UNEP on “Preventing future zoonotic disease outbreaks: protecting the environment, animals and people in a post-COVID-19 world”.
The videos have been developed for sharing on social media accounts. Should you need video files, please contact us.
