Regional Office for Europe,20191 online resource (vi, 62 pages)Cultural Contexts of Health and Well-being ; Policy brief ;2Print version : 9789289053945 Includes bibliographical referencesThis policy brief has been developed in response to the contemporary challenge of antibiotic resistance (‎ABR)‎. ABR poses a formidable threat to global health and sustainable development. It is now increasingly recognized that the systematic neglect of cultural factors is one of the biggest obstacles to achieving better health outcomes and better standards of living worldwide. Using a cultural contexts of health approach, the policy brief explores the centrality of culture to the challenge of ABR. The brief examines how the prescription and use of antibacterial medicines, the transmission of resistance, and the regulation and funding of research are influenced by cultural, social and commercial, as well as biological and technological factors. The brief moves beyond the ready equation of culture with individual behaviours and demonstrates how culture serve as an enabler of health and provide new possibilities for change.Culture(DNLM)D003469Global Health(DNLM)D014943Drug Resistance, Microbial(DNLM)D004352Antimicrobial Stewardship(DNLM)D000073602Health Policy(DNLM)D006291Agriculture(DNLM)D000383Culture(IDREF)027231429idrefSanté publique(IDREF)027248135idrefRésistance aux antibiotiques(IDREF)053498836idrefPolitique sanitaire(IDREF)027243192idrefAgriculture(IDREF)027269892idrefEuropeEuropeidrefCultureGlobal HealthDrug Resistance, MicrobialAntimicrobial StewardshipHealth PolicyAgricultureCultureSanté publiqueRésistance aux antibiotiquesPolitique sanitaireAgricultureLedingham Katieaut1255046Hinchliffe Stevegéographe1967-....autJackson Mark1959-....autThomas FelicityautTomson G(Göran),autBeLUBeLU9910591157303321Antibiotic resistance2910032UNINA
