Data sources, dashboards and reports on AMR
Data sources, dashboards and reports to support the identification and understanding of AMR-related health inequalities.
This section brings together data sources, dashboards and reports to support the identification and understanding of AMR-related health inequalities. Data supports action by helping teams identify where inequalities exist, which populations are most affected, and where to prioritise efforts. It also enables monitoring and evaluation, allowing interventions to be refined based on evidence and impact over time.
Information for each data source, dashboard and report on AMR has been provided against a set of descriptors (Table 1) to help users quickly identify those most relevant to their needs. A full list is available in Annexe NAP AMR Health Inequalities toolkit v0.2.
