Overview
AMR is a growing global threat to public health and countries have developed NAPs to counter this threat. This course covers the 6 steps for sustainable implementation of NAPs on AMR from the “WHO implementation handbook for national action plans on antimicrobial resistance: guidance for the human health sector”. The 6 steps include:
- strengthen governance;
- prioritize activities;
- cost the operational plan;
- mobilize resources;
- implement prioritized activities;
- monitor and evaluate.
Guidance on a stepwise approach for each of the 6 steps, as well as existing WHO AMR tools and resources, is provided. This course is intended for national/subnational policy-makers, technical leads and implementing partners working on the implementation of NAPs on AMR within the human health sector. This includes national health authorities, members of the national/subnational multisectoral coordination mechanisms and/or technical working groups, senior technical AMR experts and policy-makers involved in implementing AMR activities at all levels of the health system, and implementation partners to accelerate sustainable implementation, monitoring and evaluation of NAPs on AMR.
