Government of Canada Action Plan 2021
This Federal Action Plan by the Government of Canada outlines a coordinated, collaborative approach to respond to the threat of antimicrobial resistance and use (AMR/AMU). It focuses on three strategic areas: Surveillance, which involves detecting and monitoring AMR/AMU trends; Stewardship, aimed at conserving the effectiveness of existing treatments through appropriate use, prevention, and regulation; and Innovation, which promotes funding collaborative research and development for new solutions. The plan's overarching goal is to protect the health of Canadians from illness caused by AMR.
