The CDC Global Antimicrobial Resistance Laboratory and Response Network (GARLRN) project under Global Healthcare Detection and Response (GHDR) will enhance detection and response to infectious disease threats, specifically the threat of antimicrobial resistance (AR). The EIDHS division of FHI 360 will partner with CDC’s environmental microbiologists in Kenya to strengthen laboratory networks to improve detection and identify risk factors that drive the emergence and spread of AR and enhance the capacity of laboratories to collect and test water samples for AR pathogens. Data collected will guide the network to further support prevention and response to AR threats and inform global prevention strategies.
