From: Make science evolve into a One Health approach to improve health and security: a white paper

1.

Burden and Impact of AMR

 - AMR and global burden of disease

 - Global health security

 - Impact of AMR on animal production and food safety

 - Impact of AMR on global trade

 - Societal impacts from AMR

 - Economic impact

2.

Transmission human, animal, environment

 - What has been achieved, what is the evidence?

 - Systems epidemiology of transmission

 - Biosafety

 - Farm to fork to man and back?

 - Waste management and impact on AMR transmission

3.

Surveillance of AMR

 - Human (hospital, community), animal, environment

 - Use of whole genome sequencing for surveillance, one health microbiology, Global Microbial Identifier

 - Evolution of AMR

 - Gene mobilization factors (including waste management)

 - Integrated AMR and antimicrobial use surveillance

 - Big data

4.

Use of antibiotics

 - AMR and use of antibiotics for growth promotion
