Understanding and mitigating resistance to effective treatment is a cornerstone of our fight against infectious diseases. Antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacterial infections are increasingly predicted to have catastrophic impact on global health and wellbeing. To better respond to this growing crisis, we need the highest quality insight into how, where and when AMR emerges and the ability to monitor its progression so that we can understand whether our mitigation efforts are effective at a local, national and international level. We have previously implemented capacity for Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) at key reference sites, embedded in nascent or existing national surveillance networks in Nigeria, India, Colombia and The Philippines and shown the potential to enhance surveillance through outbreak detection and monitoring of resistant populations. Saving lives demands rapid delivery of the right data to the right decision makers. Transforming the data landscape to operationalise the use of intelligent surveillance is key to moving from public health research to public health implementation. Here we will: - Deliver a data and reporting landscape for WGS-enhanced surveillance. - Leapfrog a surveillance network in Nigeria to spot and stop outbreaks - Deliver stakeholder specific reporting pathways in The Philippines - Monitor the impact of interventions in India - Bring together surveillance for OneHealth in Colombia - Share and implement the above across Countries - Develop regional centres of excellence to drive international policy. We will leave a legacy of engineering, data science and data driven surveillance enhanced through the intelligent use of WGS. Effectively maximising the value of surveillance data to drive policy at local, national and international levels will profoundly impact public health strategies for mitigating the impact of antimicrobial resistant infections
