The purpose of this mission was to strengthen the skills in antimicrobial resistance data management of the staff of 14 sentinel laboratories with the WHONET software developed by the WHO Collaborating Centre for Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance ( http://www.whonet.org/).
This training, funded by the ASLM, was leaded by Dr John Stelling, who co-founded Whonet software. People trained were Microbiologists and Biomedical technologists from the 14 sentinel laboratories involved in the AMR surveillance in Burkina Faso.
