E-learning

Supporting countries and food and agriculture stakeholders in building capacities and competencies to address the risk of AMR is one of FAO’s mandate.  Online learning can play a crucial role in delivering training across the globe. In addition, due to COVID-19, remote education has been highly demanded. FAO has developed a training set based on the demand and will continuously present helpful learning opportunities.

Understand Antimicrobial Resistance in Food and Agriculture

  • producers and wholesale and retail distributors of antimicrobials;
  • extension and veterinary services, epidemiologists, laboratory personnel and academia, including students; and
  • government officials, policy-makers, food safety officers and the private sector.

You will learn about:
  • general principles of the emergence and spread of AMR in agrifood systems
  • relevance and impacts of AMR in the food and agriculture sector
  • the potential role of governments, farmers, animal health professionals, industry and other key stakeholders in AMR mitigation
  • the role and current initiatives of FAO in tackling AMR and the FAO Action Plan on AMR 2021-2022

Course structure

The course consists of five lessons, ranging from approximately 30 - 40 minutes duration each:

  • Lesson 1 - What is antimicrobial resistance and why is it a global public health challenge
  • Lesson 2 - Antimicrobial resistance in the context of One Health
  • Lesson 3 - The role of food and agriculture stakeholders in antimicrobial resistance

FAO Progressive Management Pathway for Antimicrobial Resistance

FAO Progressive Management Pathway for Antimicrobial Resistance

Overview

The course provides a comprehensive overview of the FAO Progressive Management Pathway for Antimicrobial Resistance (PMP-AMR). It covers FAO’s support focusing on the National Action Plans on AMR (AMR-NAPs), through the PMP-AMR tool, which provides assistance in incorporating the food and agriculture components of the AMR-NAPs and in ensuring that a One Health approach is applied, to support national efforts to combat AMR. Learners will gain an understanding of the technical topics addressed in the PMP-AMR tool. They will also learn about the practical application of the tool, specifically how to organize and support PMP-AMR national assessment workshops, by identifying all the key stakeholders involved. The course concludes with guidance for planning assessment workshops.

Target Audience

The target audience for this course includes:

  • PMP-AMR facilitators, who will directly guide and support countries in implementing AMR-NAPs or national AMR activities, by using the FAO-PMP-AMR approach;
  • members of national multisectoral coordination groups (MCGs) on AMR or national AMR focal points who are interested in developing, implementing or revising AMR NAPs; and
  • other stakeholders relevant to AMR, including producers and wholesale and retail distributors of antimicrobials; extension and veterinary services, epidemiologists, laboratory personnel and academia; and government officials, policymakers, food safety officers and the private sector.

You will learn about:

 

  • The PMP-AMR approach and its link to national action plans (NAPs) and other FAO tools.
  • The technical components of a PMP-AMR assessment.
  • How to implement a PMP-AMR self-assessment and organize stakeholder workshops.
  • How to assess PMP-AMR outputs and identify priority actions for NAP revision using a One Health approach.

 

Course structure

This course consists of four lessons of around 25 - 40 minutes duration each:

  • Lesson 1 - Understanding the PMP-AMR approach
  • Lesson 2 - Understanding the PMP-AMR assessment tool
  • Lesson 3 - Conducting PMP-AMR assessments
  • Lesson 4 - Planning PMP-AMR assessments
