Antimicrobial Resistance Action Coalition (AMR Action Coalition)

The Antimicrobial Resistance Action Coalition (AMR Action Coalition) is a global partnership dedicated to combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which occurs when bacteria, viruses, and fungi no longer respond to medicines like antibiotics, antivirals, and antifungals. This resistance makes infections harder to treat, increasing illness, death, and healthcare costs. The coalition brings together governments, organizations, and experts to promote responsible use of medicines, support research for new treatments, and raise awareness about AMR’s dangers. Its goal is to preserve the effectiveness of current medicines and ensure they continue to save lives now and in the future.
