About the webinar:
Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is one of the key areas under the umbrella concept of One Health (OH) that merits the urgent attention of national policymakers. India's National Action Plan (NAP) on AMR was launched in 2017. Given the unique federal structure, state governments are entrusted with the frontline implementation of most of the activities around human health, animal husbandry, fisheries and the environment. At least four State Action Plans – Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Delhi and Andhra Pradesh – are now in place. Key issues for the governance of AMR at the national and state levels will be the focus area of the discussion in the webinar. It also aims to explore opportunities and challenges in multi-sectoral collaboration and the adoption of interdisciplinarity, which is at the core of the governance of AMR as well as the One Health discourse. The webinar will unravel the systemic complexities in the implementation challenges of NAP-I and the agenda-setting of National Action Plan-II AMR.

Dr. Jyoti Misri, Principal Scientist (Animal Health), Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), New Delhi

The East Asian region has been at the forefront of several path-breaking changes since 1970s beginning with the redefining the development architecture with its State-led development model besides emerging as a major region in the global politics and a key hub of the sophisticated technologies. The Centre is one of the thirteen Centres of the School of International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi that provides a holistic understanding of the region.

Several distinguished faculty who have now retired include the late Prof. Gargi Dutt, Prof. P.A.N. Murthy, Prof. G.P. Deshpande, Dr. Nranarayan Das, Prof. R.R. Krishnan and Prof. K.V. Kesavan.

The integrated course involves two semesters of classes at the M. Phil programme and a dissertation for the M. Phil and a thesis for Ph. D programme respectively. The central objective is to impart an interdisciplinary knowledge and understanding of history, foreign policy, government and politics, society and culture and political economy of the respective areas. Students can explore new and emerging themes such as East Asian regionalism, the evolving East Asian Community, the rise of China, resurgence of Japan and the prospects for reunification of the Korean peninsula.
