Shannon Majowicz, member of the WCMR and professor in the school of Public Health and Public Health Systems, has been awarded funding within the 5th Joint Programming Initiative on Antimicrobial Resistance (JPIAMR).
Majowicz is part of an international 'Resilience' consortium studying the ability of systems to respond to surprise while maintaining vital functions. These attributes are important for health systems in the context of rising global risks such as emerging infectious diseases and growing antimicrobial resistance.
The Resilience consortium will focus on resistant bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae and MRSA, in selected high-income and lower-middle income countries. Results of this research will inform future management policy to better limit antimicrobial use and antimicrobial resistance across animal and human health.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land promised to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Indigenous Initiatives Office.
