| What are governance mechanisms essential for in combating AMR? | effective intersectoral coordination of activities to combat AMR | The Government of India is strongly committed to tackling AMR in the country and lead the global and regional AMR agenda. The Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi highlighted India’s role in tackling AMR at the joint statement issued after the meeting with President Barack Obama of the United States of America, as well as the Government’s commitment to tackle AMR during his Mann ki Baat address in July 2016. Governance mechanisms are essential for effective intersectoral coordination of activities to combat AMR. They are also important to engage key stakeholders in the development of NAP- AMR to ensure their ownership during the implementation phase. Governance mechanisms need political support and authority to take actions, and are more likely to be effective with clearly defined terms of reference. The following AMR committee/groups (figure 1) were notified on 27 September 2016. | 449 | definition | 1.000 | https://ncdc.mohfw.gov.in/uploads/resource/1769332585_File645.pdf | Governance mechanisms are essential for effective intersectoral coordination of activities to combat AMR. | 20 | page=20,block=3 | 0.700 | valid |
| What does the Global Action Plan on AMR offer to address antimicrobial resistance? | a broad framework for combating AMR | In May 2014, the World Health Assembly requested the development of a global action plan (GAP) on antimicrobial resistance, in resolution WHA67.25, reflecting a global consensus that antimicrobial resistance poses a profound threat to human health. The WHO Secretariat led the development of the Global Action Plan on AMR (GAP-AMR) that takes into account the commitment, perspectives and roles of all relevant stakeholders, and in which everyone has clear and shared ownership and responsibilities. In May 2015, the sixty- eight World Health Assembly endorsed the GAP-AMR to tackle antimicrobial resistance – including antibiotic resistance, the most urgent drug resistance trend. The WHA resolution also requests Member States to align their national action plans with GAP-AMR by May 2017. The Global Action Plan on AMR provides a broad framework for combating AMR. | 831 | definition | 1.000 | https://ncdc.mohfw.gov.in/uploads/resource/1769332585_File645.pdf | The Global Action Plan on AMR provides a broad framework for combating AMR. | 10 | page=10,block=5 | 0.700 | |
