Fleming Fund

The Fleming Fund is an international initiative dedicated to improving the detection and tracking of antibiotic resistance, which is when bacteria no longer respond to medicines designed to kill them. By strengthening laboratory capacity, sharing data, and supporting policy development in low- and middle-income countries, the fund aims to help these nations better understand and combat resistant infections. This effort is essential to ensuring effective treatments remain available, protecting public health, and preventing the spread of resistant bacteria worldwide.
