The emergence and re-emergence of pandemic and other public health threats are complex and multifaceted, as evidenced by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Their effective management and countering require multiple lines of collaborative action and sustained cross-sectorial coordination.
“National One Health Strategic Plan” has been developed using a multi-sectoral approach drawing expertise and experiences from various sectors reflecting shared commitment to enhanced collaboration among human, animal, wildlife, and environmental health sectors to reduce the burden of zoonotic diseases, Anti-Microbial Resistance (AMR) and other public health threats. This strategic plan is a whole-ofgovernment guiding document summarizing strategic One Health activities among various stakeholders.
Tanzanian government is addressing the AMR problem through the implementation of the National Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance under one health approach.
The NAP-AMR 2023-2028 incorporate six strategic objectives:
Strengthen coordination, collaboration and governance for NAP on AMR implementation; Create awareness and understanding of antimicrobial resistance through effective information, education and communication; Strengthen the knowledge and evidence base through surveillance and research; Reduce the incidence of infection through effective sanitation, hygiene, infection prevention, and on-farm biosecurity ; Optimize the use of antimicrobial medicines in human and animal health; and develop the economic case for sustainable investment that takes into account the needs to increase investment in new medicines, diagnostic tools, vaccines and other interventions
