WorldFish has recently joined the Antimicrobial Resistance and One Health–South Asia (AMROH-SA) consortium—part of the Fleming Fund Regional Grants, a UK Department of Health and Social Care initiative—to help address the escalating threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in aquaculture across Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. As a technical partner, WorldFish is contributing to the design of aquaculture-specific surveillance protocols for antimicrobial use (AMU) and resistance (AMR), delivering laboratory training, reinforcing One Health–oriented interpretation of surveillance data, and engaging aquaculture practitioners to promote responsible antimicrobial practices. These efforts aim to fortify sustainable aquatic food systems and inform evidence-based stewardship across the region.
