Imagine a world where childbirth, routine operations, and life-saving medical procedures like chemotherapy themselves become life-threatening; and simple infections may, once again, be a death sentence. This is Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), which occurs when the micro-organisms which cause certain diseases in humans and animals no longer react to previously effective drugs.
Together with EPHA’s diverse network of members and a broad coalition of experts, we seek to develop concrete policy proposals and stimulate political will to change policies and practices in all dimensions of the ‘One Health’ approach to tackle the root causes of antimicrobial resistance.
