ReAct Africa has successfully launched four One Health Clubs at four universities in Zambia, supported by the Zambia Antimicrobial Resistance Coordinating Committee (AMRCC) within the Technical Working Group on Education and Awareness.
Between January and March, ReAct has been conducting capacity-building sessions in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) for club members. When forming these clubs, membership was thoughtfully designed to include not only students from scientific fields but also those from social sciences, encompassing areas such as Law, Accounting, Business, ICT, Education, and Social Work, among others.
To enhance student involvement, ReAct Africa inaugurated the Youth Innovation Hub on January 30th. This hub serves as a youth-oriented space for individuals engaged in the AMR field to display their skills and talents related to awareness, communication, and advocacy. It is designed to host AMR debates, quizzes, trivia sessions, and public lectures, as well as to foster talent discovery.
