In order to involve the different national stakeholders having a role in the use of antibiotics (AMU) in veterinary medicine, the Centre of Expertise on AntiMicrobial Consumption and Resistance in Animals (AMCRA), was created in 2012 in Belgium as a platform aiming at safeguarding human and animal health and animal welfare by a substantial reduction of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in veterinary medicine. AMCRA works on behalf of federal competent national authorities and promotes good practices and a esponsible use of antimicrobials in animals. At present the activities of the organization can be summarized within two main areas: editing - promoting advices, guidelines and awareness raising and secondly analysing data of antimicrobial use at farm level.
