| Description |
Antibiotic resistance is a global health threat because many infections caused by resistant bacteria in humans and animals are difficult to treat with the available antibiotics. Thus, antibiotic resistance is considered a "One Health" problem that affects the lives of humans, animals and the environment. This phenomenon is mainly due to the ability of bacteria and their genes to spread reciprocally between species. However, the overuse and abuse of antibiotics in human and veterinary medicine and agriculture can significantly increase the spread and persistence of antibiotic resistance in various ecosystems.
This course, therefore, links these two priority topics: antibiotic resistance and marine conservation, under the "One Health" approach, as they are interconnected and have widespread implications for the human, animal, and environmental health.
Topics include:
• Antibiotic resistance and One Health approach
• Antibiotic resistance bacteria sneaking into marine ecosystems
• Research methods and design in One Health topics |

| Content and Methodology |
The course "Antibiotic Resistance and Marine Conservation" consists of a blended learning system that includes synchronous and asynchronous units. The asynchronous content will be presented on the Moodle platform, where participants will explore the theoretical basis of the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and the pathways of spread between humans, animals, and the environment. They will also be introduced to recent scientific studies related to the One Health approach that show the link between marine life and antibiotic resistance, as well as will explore the impact of antibiotic resistance on marine life. Finally, interactive materials and sessions will allow participants to explore various research methods that can be used to investigate One Health issues.
During synchronous sessions, participants will meet online via "Zoom" with our guest speakers and will be able to work in international and interdisciplinary teams on a study protocol focused on One Health topics.
Synchronous Sessions:
- Synchronous Session I: 2 October 15:00-16:00 CET
