Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices on Antimicrobial Use, Resistance, and Stewardship in Africa

Abstract

The report provides findings of a Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices study on Antimicrobial Use, Resistance, and Stewardship in Africa. Beginning in August 2021, surveys were disseminated across the continent with targeted subnational and national surveying efforts in 15 countries. This interim report describes select, preliminary results from surveying activities among the lay/general population in those 15 countries between 01 August and 30 September 2021. Subnational, national, and continental survey activities across all stakeholder groups will continue through December 2021. An update to this interim report describing full results across all stakeholder groups will be published in March 2022.
