Welcome to Session 4 of the Bioshield Squad: Level Up Biosecurity, Lock Out AMR training series! 🐓🌍
This session, led by Dr. Eunice Achieno Omondi, a veterinarian and laboratory epidemiologist at Kenya’s National Veterinary Reference Laboratory, focuses on the real-world barriers that smallholder poultry farmers face when implementing biosecurity practices.
Through expert insights, case examples, and interactive breakout discussions, participants explore:
The link between biosecurity, poultry health, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR)
Barriers such as financial constraints, knowledge gaps, reliance on agrovets, and limited access to veterinary services
How cultural practices and misuse of antimicrobials worsen AMR risks
Practical, low-cost, and community-driven strategies to strengthen biosecurity
The session emphasizes the importance of youth champions, farmer field schools, and peer-led education in driving sustainable solutions while highlighting the role of the One Health approach in tackling AMR.
👉 Watch this session to understand the challenges farmers face and how we can work together to build resilient, biosecure livestock systems across Africa.
