Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) represents a major global threat across human, animal, plant food and environmental sectors, threatening the effective treatment of an ever-increasing range of infections caused by bacteria, parasites, viruses and fungi, resulting in prolonged illness and increased mor...tality, often felt hardest by the most vulnerable populations. AMR also endangers the sustainability of agri-food systems and food safety.
Since 2010 there is a strong commitment from FAO, OIE and PAHO to fight AMR, working together to mitigate the risks in the interconnection among the human health, animal health and the environment. In this context, the organizations now joined forces in the implementation of the project ‘Working Together to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance’ to ensure a coherent “One Health” approach recognizing the multidimensionality and necessity of an intersectoral response that is needed to address the problem of AMR.
The overall strategic objective of the three-year project (2020-22) supported and financed by the European Union (EU) is to contribute to tackle AMR through the implementation of National AMR Action Plans by working with seven Latin American partner countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay.

La Surveillance épidémiologique est un processus continu de collecte, d'analyse et de diffusion d'informations pour la prise d'actions de riposte. Les activités de surveillance épidémiologique sont mises en oeuvre au Sénégal selon la stratégie SIMR (Surveillance Intégrée de la Maladie et R...iposte) et suivant le RSI (Version 2005). Cependant, très souvent les données de surveillance des maladies, surtout aux niveau communautaire, ne sont pas toujours bien enregistrées, notifiées et analysées.
Aujourd'hui, les maladies transmissibles emergentes et ré-émergentes comme la maldie à Virus Ebola (MVE), constituent une menace importante pour la santé et le bien-êtres de nos communautés. Fort heureusement, les interventions de lutte et de prévention sont bien connues pour certaines.
Il en résulte que des opportunités pour prendre et mettre en place des mesures de riposte appropriées de santé publique pour sauver des vies existens et doivent être clairement indentifiées. Pour cela, il s'avère nécessaire de former de manière adéquate les acteurs communautaires et de mettre en place un système perfomant de surveillance intégrée des maladies aux niveau communautaire soutenu par une communication appropriée avec les populations aussi bien en milieu urbain que rural.
