AMR-SORT IT 2022 annual report
Progress, Achievements, Challenges
Overview
Good value for money of SORT IT continues due to TDR’s established convening power, global networking capacity, use of SORT IT technical know-how and the trained human resource pool that has been built over the past decade. The deployment of an online training platform has increased efficiencies, by allowing projects to continue and at lower costs, despite being significantly delayed due to COVID-19. To promote effectiveness and impact, we have continued to engage with those expected to use the research results, such as members of the AMR committees, WHO country offices and disease control programmes.
To maximize the opportunities for research uptake, we have improved ‘effective communication of research evidence’. Participant selections promote gender and geographic equity and first authorship from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). These achievements have reinforced TDR’s coordination role, improved TDR partnerships and elevated TDR’s position to new levels of strength and international recognition.
