Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been described as a silent pandemic - one that is ever-present, ubiquitous and growing but often insidious and overlooked. A true One Health issue, AMR affects people, animals, plants, crops and the environment in complex and interconnected but poorly understood ways, and the impact will continue to increase. In animals, AMR affects animal health, welfare and production and is also considered a food safety, food security and substantial economic issue. This article describes recent advances in addressing AMR in bacteria from animals, focusing on surveillance, applied stewardship, new drug development and alternatives to antimicrobials, strengthening animal health systems, changes in global awareness, and obstacles to effective surveillance and stewardship.

The Scientific and Technical Review is a periodical publication containing scientific information that is updated constantly. The Review plays a significant role in fulfilling some of the priority functions of the OIE. This peer-reviewed journal contains in-depth studies devoted to current scientific and technical developments in animal health and veterinary public health worldwide, food safety and animal welfare. The Review benefits from the advice of an Advisory Editorial Board and a Scientific and Technical Committee composed of top scientists from across the globe.
