The TAP Manual. An in-depth guide for planning and implementing Tailoring Antimicrobial Resistance Programmes

The rise and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is affected by multiple factors, making it a difficult and complicated issue to address locally and globally. The WHO Regional Office for Europe has developed this Tailoring Antimicrobial Resistance Programmes (TAP) Manual to assist Member States with using a behavioural insights approach to identify appropriate and feasible interventions to begin tackling AMR in their contexts. Readers are first provided with guidance on using the Manual and information on the background and theoretical basis of the TAP process. The second part of the Manual leads readers through the five stages of the TAP process, from inception to intervention delivery and evaluation, providing instructive examples and exercises.
