In order to ensure adequate implementation of the harmonised AMR monitoring and reporting by Member States in 2021, the EU awarded grants for a maximum amount of €2 million to cover costs incurred by the Member States for the implementation of the actions as of 1 January 2021.
The data gathered will allow for continued scientific analysis of the development and spread of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens in food, contributing to assess trends in AMR and making the EU a best practice region.
