Slowing down superbugs

Legislations and antimicrobial resistance (AMR)

FAO REPORT

Legislation forms the backbone of the governance structure crucial to effectively combating AMR. Legislation has the role of enshrining the key regulatory controls within a sector into legally enforceable provisions. It establishes linkages among the various sectors and activities in different areas that have an impact on AMR, and facilitates coordinated implementation by the various competent authorities involved.
