PROJECT ON ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE IN THE GLOBAL NORTH AND SOUTH

Recognizing global challenges, encouraging local change

We worked together with BUKO Pharma-Kampagne, a German NGO, to gather information on antibiotic resistance causes, consequences, and challenges. Moreover, we did a series of interviews to take a closer look at three different case studies in Tanzania (as mentioned below) which highlighted specific problems related to antibiotic resistance in human health, animal health, and the environment as well as structural problems they caused.

  • Childrens'''' infection and antibiotic resistance
  • The uncontrolled use of antibiotics in animal husbandry and its consequences
  • Reduced awareness and lack of pharmacies in rural areas lead to high use and irrational use of antibiotics.

Our team met different interview participants in Dar es Salaam, Dodoma, Morogoro municipal and Ifakara district. The project aimed to further stimulate the public discussion on antibiotic resistance (ABR) as a massive global health risk and show the shared responsibility and promote national, local, and personal options for action and change.
