Working Group 1

Peer learning, training, stakeholder engagement and communication 
Group coordinator: Jane Parmley

Objectives:
• Organize activities for network members to share expertise, experiences and learning and engage external stakeholders (at some seminars).
• Keep network members updated on new tools and publications and informed about opportunities for meetings and activities of the WGs.
• Organize activities to involve stakeholders (practitioners, tool developers, etc.)

Working Group 2

Governance 
Group coordinators: Mary E Wiktorowicz / Arne Ruckert

The objective of Working Group 2 is to develop a One Health framework for analyzing global and state governance of AMR surveillance by identifying the factors and variables important to include in analyses of AMR governance and policy and convey the manner, in which they are linked and interdependent. The approach used is to, in a first step, develop a scoping review on the governance dimensions of One Health antimicrobial resistance surveillance that assists in identifying relevant variables to support the development of the analytic framework. The framework would guide and support case study and comparative analyses conducted through related Working Groups. In a second step, Working Group 2 will conduct a scan of 15 existing AMR surveillance tools to identify potential governance dimensions absent from the tools and propose additional evaluation questions relevant to each tool.

Working Group 3

Methods for impact evaluation
Group coordinators: Nicolas Antoine-Moussiaux/ Marion Bordier

WG3 focusses on impacts of integrated surveillance of AMR (and AMU) with the aim to propose methodological insights for their evaluation. The group will first identify and characterize the various possible impacts, both tangible and non-tangible. Then, indicators and associated measurement methods for their evaluation will be identified.
The group will then focus on developing further evaluation methods for specific impacts, mainly intermediate impacts that are rarely addressed. To this end, several studies will be carried out with the help of Master and PhD students. In Belgium, two studies will be conducted: one on the evaluation of the user-based value of the information produced by an integrated surveillance system, and the other on the evaluation of the collaborative capacities generated by the operation of an integrated surveillance system. In France, Lucie Collineau will work on the impact of collaborations in the French surveillance system using multi-criteria analysis. The group work will also incorporate the evaluation framework developed by Sarah Mediouni for the evaluation of the integrated surveillance system for AMR in Canada, and that of Maurizio Aragrande on the economic evaluation of integrated surveillance using costing methods to ascertain the value-added of integration in surveillance. 
Finally, the evaluation methods developed will be proposed to WG4 for application to other concrete case studies and will be integrated in the CoEvalAMR guidance.
