URL: https://worldfishcenter.org/blog/playing-learn-engaging-fish-farmer-communities-and-practitioners-antimicrobial-stewardshiphttps://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12348/6814This blog describes the use of interactive, game-based learning tools to engage fish farmers and practitioners in antimicrobial stewardship in Bangladesh. Through participatory activities such as the “Snakes and Ladders” AMR game and group discussions, participants learned about disease prevention, biosecurity, and the risks of unnecessary antimicrobial use. The approach encouraged peer learning and active participation, helping farmers better understand preventive practices and responsible decision-making. The experience highlights how playful, community-led methods can effectively support sustainable antimicrobial stewardship in aquaculture.
