Supporting Members: AMR and AMU Awareness
Our key activities include AMU monitoring workshops to understand the AMU supply chain, awareness seminars for the livestock and aquaculture industries, awareness seminars for veterinary education establishments (VEE), laboratory training on AMR surveillance, and focal point training for veterinary products.
Veterinary services should mainstream antimicrobial stewardship as one of its core activities to combat AMR, and WOAH can provide the necessary support.
