This call for joint transnational research proposals, cofunded by the European Union, aims to support multinational, collaborative research projects on comparison of prevention, control and intervention strategies for AMR infections through multidisciplinary studies, including One Health approaches.

The One Health approach is encouraged, but not mandatory.

--Compared effectiveness and economic evaluation of the implementation of new and/or more cost-effective methods for rapid detection and diagnosis of infections by multi-drug resistant microorganisms (MDR) for the purpose of identification of appropriate therapy, transmission routes or early detection of outbreaks in different settings.

--Investigations of efficacy and effectiveness of behavioral intervention strategies, public awareness strategies or other stewardship strategies aiming at reducing the use and misuse of antibiotics and the development and transfer of AMR.

--Assessment of new methods to improve and raise hygiene and sanitation standards to reduce infections in health and care settings.

--Evaluation of the impact of new ways to standardize and utilize antimicrobial use and transmission data on intervention strategies and prevention of antimicrobial resistance.
