Guidance to facilitate monitoring and evaluation for antimicrobial resistance national action plans

Quadripartite: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations FAO; UN Environment Programme UNEP; World Health Organization WHO; World Organisation for Animal Health WAHO (2023) CC

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global human, animal, plant and environment health threat that needs to be addressed by every country. The impacts of AMR are wide-ranging in terms of human health, animal health, food security and safety, environmental effects on ecosystems and biodiversity, and ... socioeconomic development. Just like the climate crisis, AMR poses a significant threat to the delivery of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The response to the AMR crisis has been spearheaded through the global action plan on antimicrobial resistance (GAP-AMR), developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2015, in close collaboration with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH), and formally endorsed by the three organizations’ governing bodies and by the Political Declaration of the high-level meeting of the United Nations General Assembly on AMR in 2016. In 2022, the three organizations officially became the Quadripartite by welcoming the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) into the alliance “to accelerate coordination strategy on human, animal and ecosystem health”. The aim of the GAP-AMR is to ensure the continuity of successful treatment with effective and safe medicines. Its strategic objectives include: • improving the awareness and understanding of AMR; • strengthening the knowledge and evidence base through surveillance and research; • reducing the incidence of infection through effective sanitation, hygiene and infection prevention measures; optimizing the use of antimicrobial medicines in human and animal health; and • developing the economic case for sustainable investment that takes account of the needs of all countries and increasing investment in new medicines, diagnostic tools, vaccines and other interventions. With the adoption of the GAP-AMR, countries agreed to develop national action plans (NAPs) aligned with the GAP-AMR to mainstream AMR interventions nationally. Individually, the Quadripartite took action to advance AMR interventions in their respective sectors. FAO adopted a resolution on AMR recognizing that it poses an increasingly serious threat to public health and sustainable food production, and developed an AMR action plan to support the resolution’s implementation. For its part, WOAH developed a strategy on AMR aligned with the GAP-AMR, acknowledging the importance of a One Health approach to AMR. Similarly, more recently, UNEP’s governing body, the United Nations Environment Assembly, recognized that AMR is a current and increasing threat and a challenge to global health, food security and the sustainable development of all countries, and welcomed the GAP-AMR and the NAPs developed in accordance with its five overarching strategic objectives more

Politique Nationale De La Sante Communautaire

Ministère de la Santé, République Bénin (2015) C2

Depuis plus de trois décennies, le Bénin a souscrit à l’approche des soins de santé primaires telle que définie à la conférence d’Alma-Ata (1978) et renforcée par l’Initiative de Bamako (1987). Le pays a mis en oeuvre diverses expériences de soins de santé au niveau communautaire ... avec l’appui des Partenaires Techniques et Financiers (PTF) et la participation des Organisations Non Gouvernementales (ONG) et les Organisations Communautaires de Base (OCB). Celles-ci ont contribué à l’amélioration de l’offre des services de santé, malgré l’absence d’une politique coordonnée devant servir de cadre institutionnel à la santé communautaire. A l’étape actuelle du processus de mise en oeuvre de diverses expériences pilotes d’actions communautaires, le Ministère de la Santé s’est engagé dans une réflexion visant l’élaboration d’une politique nationale de santé communautaire. Celle-ci devra servir à encadrer la mise à l’échelle des interventions communautaires qui ont démontré leur efficacité et leur impact sur les populations cibles. Cette réflexion a entraîné la tenue du forum national sur la santé communautaire en Novembre 2013 à Cotonou. Le document de Politique de Santé Communautaire s’arrime au Plan National de Développement Sanitaire à travers lequel le Bénin ambitionne de « disposer en 2025 d’un système de santé performant basé sur des initiatives publiques et privées, individuelles et collectives, pour l’offre et la disponibilité permanente de soins de qualité, équitable et accessible aux populations de toutes catégories, fondées sur les valeurs de solidarité et de partage du risque pour répondre à l’ensemble des besoins de santé du peuple béninois » Dans le présent document, il est défini une vision, des priorités et des stratégies pour les dix prochaines années en santé communautaire. La principale innovation réside dans la conception et la mise en place au niveau de chaque village et quartier de ville de la composante locale du système national de santé (CoLoSS) en partenariat avec toutes les parties prenantes. Le document précise les conditions requises et les mesures d’accompagnement pour la réussite de la nouvelle politique dans le sens de l’autonomisation (empowerment) progressive des populations. more

Agenda for the Americas on Health, Environment, and Climate Change 2021–2030

Pan American Health Organization (2021) C_WHO

This publication presents the Agenda for the Americas on Health, Environment, and Climate Change 2021–2030 (the Agenda). The Agenda is a call to action to the health sector to lead the charge to address environmental determinants of health in the Americas. The Pan American Health Organization (PAH ... O) will work with Member States to achieve its goal and objective to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages using a sustainable and equitable approach that places a priority on reducing health inequity. The Agenda has been developed under the umbrella of the WHO Global Strategy on Health, Environment, and Climate Change, and builds upon the commitments set forth in the Sustainable Health Agenda for the Americas 2018–2030 and the PAHO Strategic Plan 2020–2025. The Agenda was developed in consultation with the Technical Advisory Group and through a consensus-driven decision-making process with Member States during the 2019–2020 period. Looking toward the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 3, the Agenda focuses on: improving the performance of environmental public health programs and institutions; fostering environmentally resilient and sustainable health systems; and promoting environmentally healthy and resilient cities and communities. Its implementation will be context-specific, based on the needs and realities of the countries. It will benefit countries and territories by promoting good governance practices, strengthening the leadership and coordination roles of the health sector, fostering cross-sectoral action, focusing on primary prevention, and enhancing evidence and communication. It will facilitate access to human, technical, and financial resources necessary to address environmental determinants of health and ensure that the Region is fully engaged in global health, environment, and climate change processes and agreements. The objective of the Agenda is to strengthen the capacity of health actors in the health and non-health sectors to address and adapt to environmental determinants of health (EDHs), prioritizing populations living in conditions of vulnerability, in order to meet Outcome 18 of the PAHO Strategic Plan 2020–2025 directly and several other outcomes of the Plan indirectly. To address and adapt to the challenges of EDHs in the Region, an integrated and evidence-informed approach within the health sector and across sectors will be needed, one enabled, and supported by good governance practices, adequate management mechanisms, high-level political will, and adequate human, technical, technological, and financial resources. more
