Description
As AMR continues to pose threat to food safety, food security, and public health globally, the need for collective intervention to avert this threat is ever increasing. However,
limitations in the quantity and quality of AMR, AMU, AMC and antimicrobial residues data, constrain informed decision-making across the food, agriculture, and environment sectors in
Ghana. Deficiencies in evidence across the food production continuum hamper AMR-related informed decision making, and the development of strategy and policy at all levels. The impacts of
these data limitations are compounded by weak legal regulatory frameworks, inadequate human resources to undertake key tasks, and low motivation to act, especially when AMR driven issues
are not priority areas for authorities at communities, district, regional, and national scales. This limitation makes it difficult for policy makers to justify the need to prioritize
actions on AMR – particularly in the food and agriculture sectors – over other equally important health and development issues.
