Fleming Fund - International Centre for Antimicrobial Resistance Solutions (ICARS) Grant for Caribbean Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Research and Innovation Project
Project disclaimer
Description
This is an Official Development Assistance (ODA) funded UKaid project from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)’s Fleming Fund which helps to fight antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where the burden of drug-resistant infection is greater. Working in joint partnership with the International Centre for Antimicrobial Resistance Solutions (ICARS) and the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), this project seeks to strengthen the evidence base for AMR action within the One Health* landscape of the region by: (1) Assessing gaps in regional AMR research and policy initiatives, stakeholders’ priorities and evidence generation opportunities; (2) Strengthening and building quality improvement capability and capacity, with an emphasis on surveillance, prevention and response to AMR using a One Health* approach; and (3) Supporting the establishment of an AMR Centre of Excellence in the Caribbean, enabling multi-disciplinary AMR research partnerships and multi-sector networks. Activity will be delivered in collaboration with institutions, researchers, policy experts, clinicians and One Health* actors across ten ODA-eligible Caribbean countries and territories. (*One Health is an integrated, unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimise the health of people, animals and ecosystems. It recognises that the health of humans, domestic and wild animals, plants, and the wider environment (including ecosystems) are closely linked and interdependent.)
