2 Finding stakeholders

With root causes in sectors ranging from health, food safety and agriculture to environment and trade, AMR is one of the most complex public health threats the world has faced (WHO, 2018b). No single government department or independent organisation can tackle it alone. Containing and controlling AMR demands coordinated action across diverse sectors and disciplines, with a broad range of stakeholders.

In the previous section you saw plenty of examples of the types of organisations and individuals that are interested in AMR. In this section, we are going to look at those networks of AMR stakeholders in more detail and think about how to effectively use the networks to communicate AMR data.
