Australia’s Cooperative Research Centre for solving antimicrobial resistance. Protecting Australia’s communities, environment and economy from antimicrobial resistance. 1. Investing more than $150M in collaborative research to mitigate AMR. 2. Taking a critical One Health approach to tackle AMR. 3.

Australia’s Cooperative Research Centre for Solving Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in Agribusiness, Food and Environments (SAAFE) brings together forward-thinking industries with leading research organisations and government agencies to tackle AMR using a coordinated and cross-sectoral approach.

Antimicrobial resistance is a serious global threat to human health, water quality, food safety and security, and agriculture productivity. AMR could also undo decades of medical progress. It is estimated that bacterial AMR was directly responsible for 1.27 million global deaths in 2019. AMR also has significant economic costs.

2024年5月28日 · SAAFE’s Analytics Program, led by Prof. Ricardo Soares Magalhães, focuses on secure data integration across agriculture, food and water value chains to mitigate AMR risks to businesses and consumers, and provide industry-specific AMR intelligence allowing better decision-making in food production, processing and regulation.

Through focused collaboration between researchers and industry, CRC SAAFE will lead the AMR response for the Australian water, waste, agribusiness, and food sectors, anticipating and addressing future challenges and capitalising on emerging opportunities.
