Global Health Security Agenda Mini-guides
The USAID MTaPS Program is implementing Global Health Security Agenda activities in 11 countries in the areas of antimicrobial stewardship, infection prevention and control, and multi-sectoral coordination to contain the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance. The following technical documents or mini-guides provide concise stepwise guidance and checklists for field MTaPS technical staff to use when implementing these activities in countries. The mini-guides facilitate standardization of MTaPS’ approach across countries while also enabling cross-country learning and capturing of best practices as they emerge. The current versions may be revised in the future based on implementation experiences and lessons learnt. The mini-guides are also available for use by other in-country stakeholders as needed.
