AMR Governance Structure

Antimicrobial Resistance National Coordinating Committee including the Ministry of Health; Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Water Development; and Ministry of Natural Resources, Energy and Mining.

AMR Action Plan

Malawi developed and implemented a Health Sector Strategic Plan I from 2011 to 2016, which was followed by the Health Sector Strategic Plan II (HSPII), running from 2017 to 2022. The plans were aimed at improving programme continuity within the health sector, and its overall contribution to national development. AMR was included in the HSSPII as a critical area of intervention and therefore provides a framework for the development of the national AMR strategy.

The Malawi AMR National Action Plan, published as the National AMR Strategy, ran from 2017-2022 and provides the operational detail to the HSSPII strategy outline, in response to the global WHO efforts to reduce the impact of AMR.
