TY  - JOUR
AB  - This article summarizes the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, on an international project to tackle the antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The research leadership and process, the access to data and stakeholders were deeply disrupted by the national and international response to the pandemic, including the interruption of healthcare delivery, lockdowns, and quarantines. The key principles to deliver the research through the pandemic were mainly the high degree of interdisciplinary engagement with integrated teams, an equitable partnership across sites with capacity building and leadership training. The level of pre-existing collaboration and partnership were also keys to sustain connections and involvements throughout the pandemic. The pandemic offered opportunities for realigning research priorities. Flexibility in funding timelines and projects inputs are required to accommodate variance introduced by external factors. The current models for research collaboration and funding need to be critically evaluated and redesigned to retain the innovation which has been shown to be successful through this current experience.
