Description
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global health threat, with the greatest risk observed in low to middle-income countries (LMICs), particularly in the global south. The World Health Organisation advocates for a One Health approach to address AMR, promoting collaboration across sectors, including in agriculture. This study aimed to enhance understanding of antimicrobial use and stewardship within pastoralist communities in northern Kenya, where there is limited information. Dataset Description: This dataset consists of four PDF files that collate anonymised qualitative and quantitative interview responses from four regions in Kenya: 1. Leparua 2. Mutunyi 3. Naibor 4. Ngare Ndare The questionnaire was written in English and then verbally translated by the research team during the interviews into Swahili, Ma, or other local languages as necessary. Responses were then translated and recorded in English by the team, in real-time, during the interviews.
