It’s time for all of us to take action and play our part!   Do you want to know what innovative solutions are there in the human, animal and environmental domains to fight #AMR?   Then stay tuned and join us in a future webinar where we will present an overview of innovative AMR solutions across the One Health sectors thanks to the expert contribution of AMR scientists in INSERM.   We will be discussing the options for procurement with experts across Europe working in the Joint Action on Antimicrobial Resistance and Healthcare Associated Infections!

EU-JAMRAI 2 participated in the recent Antibiotikaforum, a pivotal and annual Swedish event coordinated by the Public Health Agency of Sweden (Folkhälsomyndigheten) and the Swedish Board of Agriculture (Jordbruksverket) to reduce antimicrobial resistance (#AMR). 🤝 This gathering brought together national stakeholders and experts who work with antimicrobial resistance to exchange experiences and stimulate dialogue between the sectors of human and animal health, food, and the environment. They discussed innovative strategies, shared best practices, and forged collaborations about one of the greatest public health challenges of our time. The involvement of EU-JAMRAI 2 members from the Public Health Agency of Sweden in the event underscores our commitment to fostering collaboration among all countries to work on AMR. Through insightful discussions and knowledge exchange, we aim to strengthen the implementation of One Health approaches, foster innovation, and advocate for sustainable policies to safeguard antibiotics for future generations. 💪Together, we are stronger in addressing the urgent need for responsible antibiotic use and developing effective measures against resistance. #AMR #Antibiotics #OneHealth #EUJAMRAI2 #Collaboration #GlobalHealth

🎭 Bringing health education to life through theater! As part of the EU-JAMRAI 2 project, the Croatian Institute of Public Health organized a theater play titled "How Ješko Beat the Common Cold" with students from Voltino Elementary School. This creative performance aimed to educate children on the importance of using antibiotics responsibly to reduce antimicrobial resistance (#AMR).   On Thursday, November 21, they also hosted a symposium to celebrate the European Antibiotic Awareness Day and the World Antimicrobial Awareness Week. Organized in collaboration with the Academy of Medical Sciences of Croatia and the Dr. Fran Mihaljević Clinic for Infectious Diseases, the event brought together leading experts to discuss the pressing issue of AMR in Croatia. That same day, as part of our community outreach efforts, they held a lecture at the Voltino Library for adults and seniors. The session emphasized the risks of antibiotic misuse and practical steps to protect public health.   👏 A huge thank you to all the collaborators and participants for their dedication to raising awareness of this critical issue! Together, we can make a difference in building a One Health World to reduce antimicrobial resistance.   #AMR #EUJAMRAI #AntimicrobialAwareness #HealthEducation

How you handle food matters. If contaminated by pathogens it can lead to inconvenient food poisoning or even worse if you encounter a resistant bacteria.  Good food hygiene practices are essential for achieving food safety and prevent Antimicrobial Resistance:   🧼keep everything clean  🥬store your food properly  🍳cook it thoroughly  🌡️monitor your food temperatures  🚰and use clean water  ℹ️ Find more info about Antimicrobial resistance and the food production environment sources at: https://lnkd.in/dNmwgty6 (Source: European Food Safety Authority (EFSA)) #AMRArtMemes   #EAAD #AMR #AntimicrobialResistance #EuropeanAntibioticAwarenessDay #WAAW #EUJAMRAI2  ---------------------------------------------------------  “Rudolf II of Habsburg as Vertumnus”  Giuseppe Arcimboldo, 1591

🐶🐱Small animals can also suffer and spread antimicrobial resistance. If you are a pet owner, some things you can do to prevent AMR are: 🐾Feed your animal a good diet appropriate for its age, and maintain healthy hygiene conditions. 🧑⚕️Don't push your vet to prescribe antibiotics. They are professionals, trust them! 🧴Wash your hands after playing with your pet. ✅Keep your household clean (especially if you live with someone with a compromised immune system). 💞And don't forget that #AMR can be transmitted both ways. In a #OneHealth World, we need to care for each other! ℹ️ If you are a pet owner, don’t miss these tips: https://lnkd.in/dkv4PYk6 (Source: World Organisation for Animal Health) #AMRArtMemes   #EAAD, #AMR, #AntimicrobialResistance, #EuropeanAntibioticAwarenessDay #WAAW #EUJAMRAI2  European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Diogenes Jean-Léon Gérôme, 1860
