This working paper was conceived to offer practical tips and suggestions on how to establish and sustain the multisectoral coordination needed to develop and implement National Action Plans on AMR (NAPs). It is intended ... anyone with responsibility for addressing AMR at country level. Drawing on both the published literature and the operational experience of four ‘focal countries’ (Ethiopia, Kenya, Philippines and Thailand), it summarizes lessons learned and the latest thinking on multisectoral working to achieve effective AMR action. The experience in focal countries points to a number of tools and tactics that can be used to help establish and enhance sustainable multisectoral collaboration for AMR action. These can be grouped into four categories: political commitment, resources, governance mechanisms, and practical management.
During the year 2022, COVID-19 continued to be a significant challenge in Eritrea as in many other countries across the world.

One of the major achievements in the year 2022 was the beginning of the journey towards validation of

of commitment and determination by the political leadership, national and international partnerships to
reduce the associated indices to levels that qualify for elimination.
