Singapore’s National Strategic Action Plans on AMR

Singapore’s National Strategic Action Plan on AMR

In 2017, Singapore launched the first National Strategic Action Plan on AMR (NSAP) to combat the growing problem of AMR in Singapore and worldwide. Through the NSAP, Singapore has adopted a One Health approach to tackling AMR by integrating previously independent efforts across the human, animal, food, and environment sectors.

The second NSAP, NSAPv2, was jointly developed by the Communicable Diseases Agency (CDA), National Environment Agency (NEA), National Parks Board (NParks), Singapore Food Agency (SFA) and PUB, Singapore’s National Water Agency. Launched on 12 November 2025, it represents Singapore’s renewed commitment to combat the threat of AMR. With a refreshed vision and mission, the NSAPv2 builds on the groundwork laid by the first NSAP to further advance One Health collaboration and drive more measurable and targeted action on AMR.

The NSAPv2 is supported by a Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Framework that tracks the implementation of the NSAPv2 and its effectiveness.

About AMRCO

The Antimicrobial Resistance Coordinating Office (AMRCO), under the Communicable Diseases Agency (CDA), was established in 2018 to oversee the implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of the NSAP on AMR. It works with the human, animal, food, and environmental sectors and other key strategic partners to drive progress in reducing the emergence of and preventing the spread of resistant organisms.
