Upcoming Webinars

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are particularly concerned about AMR because of the widespread resistance to most medicines used to treat Neisseria gonorrhoeae in many parts of the world. Other STI pathogens with potential AMR include Mycoplasma genitalium and Trichomonas vaginalis. The department of Global HIV, Hepatitis and STIs Programmes at WHO will participate in the global annual awareness campaign to raise global awareness and understanding on AMR, an important example of One Health collaboration. This year, the departments of AMR and HIV/STIs will organize a joint webinar to launch and discuss 2 WHO Technical products, that are under the Enhanced Gonococcal AMR Surveillance Programme (EGASP) umbrella. It will also be a great opportunity to bring experts, country experience, surveillance data, diagnostics and therapeutics interventions in the pipeline together in one webinar.

To successfully treat tuberculosis it is an absolute necessity that the antimicrobial agents used reaches the site of infection in sufficient amounts. This webinar will discuss the link between drug doses and treatment outcome, the main pharmacokinetic processes, site-of-disease pharmacokinetics in pulmonary TB, combination treatment and drug-drug interactions, and the population approach using mathematical models. The target audience includes healthcare professionals, decision makers, policy makers, researchers, and the TB community.

FAO is conducting a series of knowledge-rich webinars on a monthly basis as part of the Progressive Management Pathway for Terrestrial Animal Biosecurity Community of Practice. These webinars cover a host of topics related to the progressive improvement of terrestrial animal biosecurity, involving speakers and participants from multiple disciplines and backgrounds. The upcoming webinar will showcase the approach taken by FAO to improve veterinary paraprofessional (VPP) services and outreach to female smallholder farmers. Gender-disaggregated assessments were conducted to understand extension service needs of female farmers, and challenges for female VPPs. The work included the development of gender-sensitive biosecurity plans. The approach has been piloted in South Africa, Uganda and Nigeria. Women are an important target group for last-mile animal health services, and they represent two-thirds of low-income livestock farmers. However, the role of women in ensuring animal health is often overlooked. Women are often not able to access animal health and extension services as easily as men, and only 5 percent of extension services reach women. Prioritizing women’s access to animal health services can unlock the potential of women as agents of change and catalysts for sustainable development of the livestock sector.
