Meeting Summary

The first official meeting of the Quadripartite Technical Group on Integrated Surveillance (QTG-AIS) took place on January 25-26, 2023, virtually from 12:30 to 14:30 CET each day. The primary objective was to initiate the development of an Action Plan for the group, designed to guide its activities over the next two years, focusing on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and antimicrobial use (AMU) integrated surveillance.

Key elements:

• Opening Session: Co-Chairs Prof Sabiha Essack and Prof Jaap Wagenaar were introduced. Dr Haile Getahun from the Quadripartite Joint Secretariat briefly overviewed the QJS, emphasizing its role in consolidating cooperation between FAO, UNEP, WHO, and WOAH under a One Health approach. He highlighted the political significance, including involvement from groups like the Global Leaders Group on AMR and upcoming UNGA discussions, stressing the mandate's importance.
• Member Introductions: Prof Jaap Wagenaar led this session where all members self-introduced and shared personal goals for the group's work over two to three years.
• Action Planning: Prof Sabiha Essack facilitated discussions to prioritize activities using the Terms of Reference as a framework. Activities were color-coded: green for high consensus, yellow for discussion to reach agreement on inclusion. Consolidation into an Action Plan involved detailed item-by-item review.
• Closing Remarks: The session concluded with gratitude to all participants, and the next steps involve incorporating inputs into updated drafts via email and SharePoint for consensus-building.

Overall, the meeting successfully laid the groundwork for future collaboration, with a focus on high-impact activities to support global AMR response efforts.
