Prioritizing antimicrobial resistance research, training and governance
Published title: Prioritizing antimicrobial resistance research, training and governance in the Caribbean
US$ millions unless stated. Haitian fiscal year, October to September. FY2026-27 began October 1, 2026.
Description
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant and growing threat to global public health. In 2019, an estimated 1.27 to 4.95 million deaths were attributed to bacterial AMR. The Caribbean region alone accounted for between 7,627 and 30,688 of these deaths. Recent initiatives have aimed to address AMR through strengthening microbiological diagnostics, enhancing surveillance systems, reviewing national action plans, coordinating regional AMR control efforts and conducting situational analyses of AMR risks in the food and agriculture sectors. Despite these efforts, only five CARICOM member countries have developed national action plans and just two countries have published them. In general, data on the AMR burden and risk in the Caribbean is limited, with no countries reporting AMR and antimicrobial use data to

the Global AMR Surveillance System. Evidence from published literature is sparse, particularly from the region's lower-middle-income countries. Designing and implementing context-specific research, training and public health interventions requires better data, including gender-disaggregated data on AMR’s drivers, the gendered reach of public health interventions and an understanding of how climate change influences AMR transmission. This project will fund activities to develop an AMR research agenda, reach an agreement on priority topics with AMR stakeholders in the Caribbean and develop plans for implementing a regional research agenda. Activities include stakeholder engagement workshops, leading to a prioritization of an agenda and issuance of proposal development grants to identify future investments in research, training and policy development. The project will also support knowledge mobilization and networking with stakeholders. This project is funded by the People-Centred AMR Research and Innovation Initiative, which is a partnership between IDRC and the United Kingdom Department for Health and Social Care.
