Creating awareness

Raising awareness

AMCRA aims to promote greater awareness of the issues of antibiotic resistance in food-producing animals and companion animals by means of a national awareness campaign. As part of the awareness campaign, videos and posters promoting responsible use of antibiotics have been developed, and these campaign materials are geared towards farmers, owners of companion animals, and veterinarians. Campaign material is available in Dutch and French only.

Poster and flyer 'Let's talk antibiotics'

The FPS Public Health, AMCRA and federal and regional health authorities launched an awareness campaign on antimicrobial resistance and antibiotic use. 

The aim of this campaign is to promote the correct use of antibiotics in pets and invite their owners to talk to their veterinarian about it. Veterinarians are thus at the center of this campaign and their support is indispensable for its success.
