Research and policy analysis: systems perspectives to addressing antimicrobial resistance (SEDRIC)

The SEDRIC (Surveillance and Epidemiology of Drug Resistant Infections) Board has a fixed term working group (WG) to accelerate learning and facilitate knowledge mobilisation to inform policy implementation trajectories in countries and regions. The objectives of the WG are to: (1) Conduct analysis of AMR policy journeys within the larger health system and One Health context, to identify positive and negative outlier example countries and/or public health concerns/issues which offer learning for AMR (particularly in the LMIC policy field); (2) Understand the relevance of AMR success to the wider agenda for Sustainable Development and Economic progress at the national level; (3) Identify generalisable mechanisms which lead to change in policy adoption, and impact on the ground, and advance the field of knowledge mobilisation; (4) Share this learning with specialists in AMR as well as wider stakeholders in public health, and global health policy development and implementation and evaluation; (5) Seek collaborations with academia, industry, civil society, think tanks and non-governmental organisations, to further the impact of the work by SEDRIC.
