How to influence human behaviour to tackle antimicrobial resistance (AMR) will be discussed at this year’s Shaping the Future session at WSAVA Congress. It will see members of our Therapeutics Guidelines Group (TGG) discussing the challenges of effective antimicrobial prescribing and highlight the resources available to aid practitioners in this area.
TGG member Dr Fergus Allerton, explains: “Veterinary antimicrobial stewardship is a key component of the One Health mission to address AMR yet the most effective ways in which to achieve reduced or optimized prescription are still unclear.
“Gaining a better understanding of ways in which we can optimize prescribing is critical if we are to mitigate the threat from AMR and will enable us to support policy makers across the world who are urgently seeking strategies that will most successfully influence human behaviour in this area.”
