WEBINAR: Fighting AMR in animals: experiences and progress from the field

 

During the WAAW campaign on 24 November, EU funded H2020 projects DISARM, ROADMAP, AVANT and HealthyLivestock joined forces to share experiences and progress from the field about the challenge of antimicrobial resistance in animals.

In the interactive webinar, we shared testimonials with hands-on experiences of farmers, vets, pet owners and breeders on reducing AMU and demonstrate how the actions and innovative solutions of livestock sector actors tackle AMR.
