Tackling antimicrobial resistance (AMR) through improved animal health and welfare to ensure food security
Start: 12:15 Rome time
With more than 1.3 billion people relying on livestock for their livelihoods and food security there is an urgent need to prioritize actions and policies targeting agriculture induced AMR. As highlighted by the AMR Multi-Stakeholder Partnership Platform, improved animal health and welfare plays an important role in reducing the need for antibiotics and promoting responsible use.
With the FAO RENOFARM initiative launched and the UNGA High-Level Meeting on AMR set for September, the side event will examine effective and humane pathways to better manage this silent epidemic.
