» APEC Projects to combat antimicrobial resistance

We have strengthen partnerships with international bodies including WHO and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) for combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR). APEC supported our serial projects to set up the future strategies to control and prevent AMR in the region since 2010, including the project to develop international campaign program to control and prevent AMR. In 2014, based on the serial projects on AMR, we developed the “APEC guidelines to tackle AMR in the AP region”, which was endorsed by APEC.
