​
ROADMAP joined its forces with AVANT, HealthyLivestock and DISARM projects in the joint project session on 8 June 2021 at the 5th International Conference on Responsible Use of Antibiotics in Animals. The project session "Socio-economic, technical and regulatory dimensions of sustainable change in antimicrobial use in animal production" was composed of 3 themes:
  • Theme 1: Social, economic, and regulatory factors of transitions
  • Theme 2: Promising technical innovations to reduce AMU
  • Theme 3: Stakeholder engagement and impact
ROADMAP project coordinator Nicolas Fortane summarized the objectives, structure and the progress of the project under Theme 1 with his presentation titled: "ROADMAP: What can social sciences say about change and transition? Behavioural and structural drivers of antimicrobial use (AMU) on socio-economic drivers of AMU and alternatives to AMU". Under the "Stakeholder engagement and impact" theme, Mette Vaarst (AU) and Bernadette Oehen (FiBL) presented the experiences with Living Labs as an approach towards prudent AMU in different contexts.
 The valuable speakers from the AVANT, HealthyLivestock and DISARM projects presented interesting presentations under each theme. You can see the whole programme here. After each theme, Nicolas Fortane moderated the interactive Q&A sessions.
​Overall, the session reached out to almost 75 participants from different countries and stakeholder groups. In addition, ROADMAP and AVANT, HealthyLivestock and DISARM projects have a virtual booth to present various communication and dissemination project materials such as brochures, fact sheets and videos.
