National One Health Reports

EU-JAMRAI » Surveillance » National One Health Reports

EU-JAMRAI 2 is mapping and evaluating the One Health-ness of national surveillance systems, including aspects of AMR/AMC data accessibility and data quality, and formulate common suggestions for improvements. It will facilitate the development of One Health surveillance reports in participating countries and the creation of interactive dashboards to visualise surveillance data to inform policy actions.

Survey to map national AMR surveillance systems

Together with participating countries, a survey to describe existing national AMR surveillance programs was developed, with one coordinator per country collecting data on all active programs within their national surveillance system. The survey contained questions about national surveillance programs and available data related to AMR and antimicrobials in the different sectors (human health, animal health and the environment).

The resulting maps will serve as a first step to prepare national One Health surveillance reports and in building One Health AMR networks of relevant actors across sectors. The OH-Epicap tool will be used to evaluate the One Health-ness of national AMR surveillance systems, providing diagnostics of each system’s strengths and weaknesses and suggesting concrete actions to improve collaboration across the system.

In addition, discussions have been initiated about key indicators for potential use in One Health AMR surveillance in Europe. The common view and future aspects of such surveillance will be addressed in a white pape
