Global Leaders Group on Antimicrobial Resistance

The Global Leaders Group on Antimicrobial Resistance is a diverse group of influential leaders from governments, the private sector, and health organizations committed to tackling antimicrobial resistance (AMR). AMR occurs when bacteria, viruses, and other microbes become resistant to medicines like antibiotics, making infections harder to treat. This group works to raise awareness, promote responsible use of medicines, support research, and encourage global cooperation to prevent a future where common infections become untreatable, ultimately safeguarding global health and ensuring medicines remain effective for generations to come.
