A new success story has been published highlighting some achievements of the Action to support implementation of Codex AMR texts (ACT) project in the Plurinational State of Bolivia.

The ACT project is working to help six countries improve surveillance, governance, awareness and best practices to minimize and contain foodborne antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This success story focuses on the establishment by the Government of Bolivia of a multisectoral AMR containment committee, CC-RAM, and efforts by various stakeholders to improve surveillance and monitoring of foodborne AMR. There is particular interest already coming from the bovine sector, after just two CC-RAM meetings.

This is the second in a series of six success stories about the ACT project. The first tells of the progress made in raising awareness about responsible and prudent use of antimicrobials in Pakistan.
