  • provide updates on national, regional, and global initiatives on AMR surveillance;
  • review the progress made to date with regards to the 2019 recommendations;
  • identify additional cross-cutting regional concerns and determine the ways forward to collectively address these as a region; and,
  • plan on the ways forward for the AMR Technical Advisory Group (AMR TAG) for SAARC, taking into context the agreed Terms of References (TORs) of the AMR TAG for SAARC
