Proposed each year in November by the Tripartite partners, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) and the World Health Organization (WHO), the World Antibiotic Awareness Week (WAAW) is aimed to raise awareness of the health risks posed by antibiotic resistance.
This week (18 November – 24 November 2019) is the opportunity to promote good practice in this area of concern, to limit the emergence and spread of resistant bacteria throughout the world.
